Take 1: Garrett Chaffin-Quiray and Ed Rosa discuss the limits of an Oscar-winning screenplay.
Take 2: In a second look, I realized that Promising Young Woman is even more far-fetched (as a premise), less likeable (as a narrative), and less satisfying (as entertainment) than its several big ideas (female autonomy and sexual vengeance) deserve as art in the multiplex.
