Widows at the Sie

Join guest host Deborah for Widows, one of my favorite heist movies! Widows is an amazing kinesthetic ride, Viola Davis is more than enough, but the large cast features great turns by Cynthia Erivo and Elizabeth Debicki. Written by Gillian Flynn/Lynda Laplante of Prime Suspect/Steve Mcqueen who also directed. Love this movie!

A visual artist whose movies have dealt with starvation, sex addiction, and slavery, Steve McQueen has never been considered a safe commercial bet. That just makes “Widows,” his bracing, moody heist thriller about women who finish the robbery their husbands started, all the more satisfying: McQueen has made a first-rate genre exercise that doubles as a treatise on race and gender, juggling dramatic payoff with heavier themes. “Widows” embraces its trashy, melodramatic twists while deepening their potential. If all escapism looked like this, America would be smart again. (Indiewire)
