The only Oscar nominated movie I ended up watching, glad I did. Carey Mulligan, Oscar nominee, plays the role of Cassandra in this dark thriller about a woman out to avenge the rape/suicide of her best friend, Nina.
She carries a list of people she is targeting. Her modus operandi is to dress provocatively, pretending to be drunk and enticing men to take her to their homes and then lets loose on them when they start taking advantage of her, teaching them a lesson in civics. Cassandra fears no one and pulls no punches, eventually making contact with Nina’s killers and plots her revenge in a ruthless yet methodical manner. “Hell hath no fury as a woman scorned” – Shakespeare.
