Promising Young Woman

Available to stream on Sky Cinema from April 16

“Her provocative, polemical drama wraps its sharp points in a comic, candy-coloured shell.” Kate Stables, BFI

Cassie, the heroine of Emerald Fennell’s ambitious debut “Promising Young Woman,” has an interesting hobby. By day, she works at a coffee shop, and by night, she entraps men at night into revealing that their own perception of their moral code is a form of denial. Fennell tackles the system that protects the criminal over the accuser and Cassie is trying to dismantle that system one shitty guy at a time.

“And it’s just that stuff of what we can get away with, what trust society and the world has in us — that we’re not going to just fucking lose it. We’re in their houses. We’re making their food. We’re raising their children. So what if we’re doing stuff that they don’t notice. It’s just so interesting to me.” – Emerald Fennel
