Daring Woman’s Perspective “Promising Young Woman” Poster and Trailer

Take revenge with me, too movement

Written and directed by Emerald Fennell, Promising Young Woman is about a woman named Cassie, played by Carey Mulligan, who takes a severe and witty turn on revenge. Everyone said Cassie was a promising young woman. Then, a mysterious event abruptly derailed her future. 

But nothing in Cassie’s life is what it appears to be: she’s wickedly smart, tantalizingly cunning, and she’s living a secret double life by night.

Shrewd and a Challenge “Eighth Grade” Trailer

Directed by Bo Burnham, who did well on YouTube, brings a Sundance Film Festival winner to the screen. Eighth Grade follows a teenager, played by Elise Fisher. She tries to survive the last week of her disastrous eighth-grade year before leaving to start high school.

The movie told through her social media talents and the insane awkwardness of trying to fit feel comfortable in one’s own skin.

The movie also stars Josh Hamilton, Emily Robinson, and Daniel Zolghadri.

The movie is streaming, so you can watch in the comfort of your own home or on your device.

I feel this movie will be painful to watch because the presented situations are all too familiar with any girl, or boy for that matter, coming of age in a materialistic world of Snapchat and Instagram. Just watching the trailer made me feel uncomfortable, but it could be cathartic for some viewers.
