Carey Mulligan in “Promising Young Woman.” (Focus Features via AP)
Is it a #MeToo-era revenge thriller? A 21st-century “Fatal Attraction”? A candy-colored feminist polemic, to strains of Paris Hilton and Britney Spears? A black comedy? A comic tragedy?
None of the above – and all of the above. Which is to say: a film as bracingly original as Emerald Fennell’s “Promising Young Woman” defies labels.
Here’s a couple good adjectives, though: startling – the only way to describe Fennell’s vision and execution in this, her directorial debut. And, sensational – a word that only begins to capture Carey Mulligan’s lead performance. It’s been a decade since Mulligan, now 35, received her only Oscar nod, for “An Education.” Let’s hope Oscar voters will be well educated by this latest effort.

Christopher Mintz-Plasse stars in writer-director-producer Emerald Fennell’s black comedy-thriller, ‘Promising Young Woman.’
Provocatively prompting the need within both individuals and society as a whole to reexamine the way people treat others, especially when it comes to gender equality, isn’t always an easy feat in films, especially ones that aren’t based on true stories. But the timely new drama, ‘Promising Young Woman,’ compellingly provokes that urgency in audiences through its strong-willed and determined title character.
While she can be viewed as a unique anti-hero at first glance, the eponymous main character ultimately proves to be a distinctly diverse and layered protagonist who knows what she wants to accomplish. She isn’t afraid to pursue her dreams of changing cultural views, no matter how primitive they initially may appear.

Is it a #MeToo-era revenge thriller? A 21st-century âFatal Attractionâ? A candy-colored feminist polemic, to strains of Paris Hilton and Britney Spears? A black comedy? A comic tragedy?
None of the above â and all of the above. Which is to say: a film as bracingly original as Emerald Fennellâs âPromising Young Woman" defies labels.
Hereâs a couple good adjectives, though: Startling â the only way to describe Fennellâs vision and execution in this, her directorial debut. And, sensational â a word that only begins to capture Carey Mulliganâs lead performance.
Weâve seen Mulligan command the screen before, and witnessed her consistently fearless stage work. But the tonal balancing act she conquers in this audacious, disconcerting film is something new entirely, and one wonders how many actors could even dream of pulling it off. Itâs been a decade since Mulligan, now 35, received her only Oscar nod, for âAn Education.â Letâs hope Oscar voters will be well educated by this latest effort.
