Popcorn Culture - Review: Promising Young Woman

Director/writer Emerald Fennell and star Carey Mulligan have been generating plenty of awards-season buzz with Promising Young Woman. The candy-coloured black comedy thriller tells the story of Cassie Thomas (Mulligan) who seeks to avenge the death of her best friend. We review the movie and discuss how it uses a specific visual language and storytelling technique to comment on the #MeToo age.
