Harvey finally gets caught

 She Said (2022)


Directed by Maria Schrader this film based on real events stars Carey Mulligan and Zoe Kazan. Two New York Times reporters investigate and expose Harvey Weinstein's history of abuse.


Taking on a serious subject like this and setting yourself up against the pantheon of investigative journalism films is a bit ask. The film does a good job of tackling the subject matter, using some harrowing real life testimony without ever being gratuitous with it. Unfortunately I do not think this film is as good as the giants of the genre or as good of a film on the subject matter as The Assistant (2019) is despite this film not doing much wrong.


4/5
