12.23: Women Directors: The Woman King and Women Talking

Just because the Oscars didn’t recognize any women directors this year doesn’t mean there weren’t awesome films made by women in 2022. This week, Kelly and Cort discuss two of our favorite films of 2022 that were directed by women: “The Woman King” and “Women Talking.”

“The Woman King” was directed by Gina Prince-Bythewood and wasn’t nominated for even a single Academy Award.

“Women Talking” was directed by Sarah Polley, was nominated for two Oscars, and won the Oscar for Best Adapted Screenplay.

Spoilers abound in this episode!
