Our take

Director Sarah Polley enlists a mighty ensemble cast led by Jessie Buckley, Claire Foy, and Rooney Mara for this electrifying MeToo allegory set in a closeted religious community. Nominated for two Oscars®—including Best Picture—Women Talking is a fiery study in female solidarity and empowerment.
