Cinephile No. 555 “Joy”

"Feminist" is a beautiful word and Jennifer Lawrence in "Joy" proves it. For most of the film, you spend your time debating the strength of our leading woman. Is she destined for a life of greatness; a life she has been promised since birth? Or, is she meant to live a life of mediocrity? As she tries and fails, your heart breaks. It breaks, because of another superb performance by Lawrence. Few actors or actresses are capable of her string of successful movies. For finally showing us what a powerful woman looks like, this movie deserves any recognition it might receive.

Be good to each other,

-Nathan
