Two Films Featuring Strong Female Performances
Julia Roberts and Rose Byrne deliver spectacular performances in Luca Guadagnino's "After the Hunt" and Mary Bronstein's "If I Had Legs I’d Kick You," respectively.
According to critic Sean Burns, these films offer substantial roles for women, a rarity in modern cinema, making them a cause for celebration.
- "After the Hunt" is an entertainingly trashy, star-studded provocation.
- "If I Had Legs I’d Kick You" is an indie psychodrama with audacious laughs.
Julia Roberts and Rose Byrne play flinty, difficult characters blessedly unconcerned with eliciting the audience’s sympathies.
