Hello! In this episode, I've invited Lassie to join me in discussing Promising Young Woman, a film starring Carey Mulligan and is the first feature film by British director/writer/author/actress Emerald Fennell. She is a show runner for Killing Eve S2 and plays the part of the Duchess of Cornwell in the Crown.
You might spot a girl like Cassie in a Friday night club. She's wasted \u2013 apparently, phoneless and friendless. 'Do you need help?' you ask and she takes the favor. Minutes later when you tell the cab driver to change the destination to your place, it is, however, you who have no idea how this night will unfold.
We talk about how we love the unforgettable character Cassie yet can't help but feel doubtful of her motivation and if her plan can actually work. We try to read behind this enigmatic title, and discuss the costumes, music, and cinematography. Lassie also compares the film with Samaritan Girl\u300a\u6492\u739b\u5229\u4e9a\u5973\u5b69\u300band Pieta\u300a\u5723\u6b87\u300bby Korean director Ki-duk Kim\uff08\u91d1\u57fa\u5fb7\uff09, drawing attention to the atonement between women.
While Cassie is not a good model, PYW is hilarious and heart-breaking at the same time; it is urgent and thoughtful. Highly recommended!
