My friend LOATHED "Our Brand is Crisis" - it really seems to be a love/hate sort of film.
Love Saoirse Ronan so delighted to hear "Brooklyn" is a great leading role for her.
It’s fine to me when people say they’re not a feminist. But I have to roll my eyes at “I’m a humanist”. Yes, well, not all humans have the same fights Was reading today that Saudi Arabia wants to ban seat belts for women because "it shows off the outline of their bodies." FUCK YES I'M A FEMINIST. "Humanist" is code for "mustn't upset the dong-havers."
Do you feel an opportunity has been missed, not casting Tom Hardy in the Rocky Horror re-do? I do...

I could find worthwhile parts upon a second viewing. Believe me, I hated it when I first saw it. So that's a failure of the film because no one is going to watch it twice to find redemptive parts. But I understand your friend completely. I loathed it when I first saw it, too.

She's grown so much since "Hanna". She's incredible.

Oh, jayzus! Come on...

Anyone, man or woman who have a problem with feminism need to STFU and STFD. Keep living their life and not try to undermine the fight for equality.

I know Vikander and Gleeson from Ex Machina.
Like with "Calvary" it took me a moment to like the film because I was so wrapped up in the protagonists that the endings left me upset to say the least.
Vikander was also good in A Royal Affair, she might be the one of the new-go-to Hollywood actresses.
She's also good in the not-so-great "Testament of Youth". She's forging a great path of roles of herself.
I was a little shy of seeing Suffragette because there is a really old BBC mini-series on the Pankhurst Crusaders, Shoulder to Shoulder with Sian Phillips in the role of Emmeline Pankhurst and she killed that part. I have always been proud to be a feminist after seeing that mini-series.
"Suffragette" used many composite characters and wove it with real people (Pankhurst, Emily Davison) so it stands on it's on--it has the spirit of the real movement behind it.
Did you see The Hollow Crown?
Not yet. I hear he's great IIRC he won a BAFTA for the role.
I wish that he would make some other movies, he is an interesting actor to
