She Said (2022)

In 2017, a New York Times reporter Jodi Kantor (Zoe Kazan) receives a tip that actress Rose McGowan was sexually assaulted by producer Harvey Weinstein. Although the actress confirms it, she won't permit her name to be used in the article which is being written. Determined to break the story of Weinstein's history of sexual abuse and harassment, she recruits another reporter Megan Twohey (Carey Mulligan) to help with the piece which eventually lead to the #MeToo movement. Based on the non fiction book by Jodi Kantor and Megan Twohey which detailed their investigation which lead to Weinstein's downfall (although Ronan Farrow was doing a similar article for The New Yorker at the same time) and directed by the Emmy winning Maria Schrader (UNORTHODOX). In the tradition of ALL THE PRESIDENT'S MEN and the Oscar winning SPOTLIGHT. this is a spellbinding account of a detailed investigation by journalist to expose a horrible wrong that powerful people were trying to hide and take away the voice of its victims. It's a pity that the movie didn't find its audience (who were burned out on the Weinstein story and the #MeToo movement) since it's an important one and effectively told but also because it's a damn good movie! With Ashley Judd, Patricia Clarkson, Andre Braugher, Jennifer Ehle, Samantha Morton, Peter Friedman and Angela Yeoh.
