BR: Promising Young Woman

Damaged med school dropout Cassie Thomas (Carey Mulligan) had a special way of dealing with a profound tragedy-feigning drunkenness to garner the attention of predatory men, and confronting them as they try to take advantage. While the attentions of a former classmate (Bo Burnham) have her on the cusp of breaking that cycle, the trauma of the past is about to catch up. Emerald Fennell's darkly funny revenge thriller co-stars Allison Brie, Laverne Cox, Jennifer Coolidge, Clancy Brown. 113 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English.
