'She Said' is for hardcore only

Zoe Kazan, left, is Jodi Kantor, and Carey Mulligan is Megan Twohey in She Said

The film She Said is for journalists and those interested in the development of the #MeToo movement.

Do we need to be reminded?

The film is a docudrama, well presented with good acting, enlightening, but not entertaining and, frankly, depressing. A little too dry, monochromatic. 

The American Film Institute calls it one of 2022's "best films," but it's not on my list, few films I saw anyway.

Although it's only the back of a Harvey Weinstein, it's revolting enough to recall what he did. The film outlines his unraveling. Hang him high.

New York Times reporters Megan Twohey and Jodi Kantor wrote the book (published in 2019) of the same title and are portrayed in the film by Carey Mulligan and Zoe Kazan. 

Let's hope Megan Twohey's daughter does not grow up repeating her mother's vile language.
