  1. Oscar-Winning Composer Hildur Guðnadóttir Says Maggie Gyllenhaal’s ‘The Bride!’ Is ‘Very Punk and Very Romantic’ With ‘Lots of Excitement and Violence’

  2. Falls euch die #Strg_F-Doku zu krass ist, kann ich euch Sarah Polleys Film #WomenTalking und das Kapitel „The Woman Who Stayed Silent“ aus ihrem Buch „Run Towards the Danger“ empfehlen. Lernt erkennen, wenn Frauen was Schlimmes passiert.

    Frauen zweifeln oft eher an ihrem Verstand als an dem Mann in ihrem Haushalt. Bitte zweifelt Aussagen nicht an, wenn sie was sagen, sich aber dem Täter gegenüber verhalten, als wäre nix.

    More than the #writer. #SarahPolley adapted the #MiriamToews book into the screenplay, and #directed the film. And while I don't at all begrudge Everything Everywhere it's sweep, #WomenTalking should have been nominated for best picture. It doesn't have the wizbang rollercoaster ride of EE, but like EE, it's about being a woman/mother/daughter/wife, and imho, is actually a better film.

    Women Talking - the last one we saw! Might be a bit of recency bias but I really liked it - very much the “this movie feels like it was a play” of this year (it wasn’t, it was a novel) with amazing performances and great, slightly stagey dialogue. Though that might be the setting. Highly recommended. #womenTalking #SarahPolley #MiriamToews #theOneThatFeelsLikeAPlay

  21. That #SarahPolley was not nominated for #BestDirector for #WomenTalking is shameful, frustrating.
    The film is powerful. I haven't read the book yet, so I cannot compare it to Miriam Toews' original. But Polley has crafted an incredibly powerful film, and screenplay. I said *wow!* so many times. It's subtle. None of the wizbangs of Everything Everywhere. Yes it's emotional; angry. It's also thoughtful, intense, humerous, caring, loving.
    Do yourself a favour and see it.

  22. WOMEN TALKING PODCAST Claire Foy, Rooney Mars, Frances McDormand, Sarah Polley, Miriam Toews.

    Do nothing. Stay and fight. Or leave. In 2010, the women of an isolated religious community grapple with reconciling a brutal reality with their faith.

    The film is a striking interpretation of a novel that is loosely based on a horrifying true story about women in a Mennonite colony who were raped persistently by the men in their community while they slept, attacks the colonists initially blamed on Satan or hallucination.

    The circumstances of the attacks that inspired Women Talking are nightmarish. For years, men in the Manitoba Colony used an anesthetic initially made for cattle to render girls and women unconscious and rape them. #womentalking, #clairefoy, #rooneymars, #francesmcdormand, #podcast, #podcasts, #sarahpolley, #miriamtoews, #movie #movies

  23. I picked up All My Puny Sorrows by #MiriamToews at the library, thinking it was #WomenTalking (which is now a film). Was disappointed for about half a sentence... now I can't put it down. What a great writer. #books #Canada
