It's a Fine Week to See Talented Women on the Big Screen!


In Ocean’s 8 you can see eight confident women strive to pull off a seemingly impossible heist. And they look fabulous doing it. This movie is sister to the Ocean’s 11, 12, and 13 (all staring men), but they make it their own, reimagining the Ocean’s style we know and love, while giving us a few camera shots that take us back. Sandra Bullock leads this stunning team of women that includes Cate Blanchett, Helena Bonham Carter, Sarah Paulson, Rihanna, Mindy Kaling, and Awkwafina. Like I said, talent. They’ll have you holding your breath and grabbing your neighbors hand in anticipation.

For something a little less high key, try Book Club. Diane Keaton, Jane Fonda, Candice Bergen, and Mary Steenburgen make up this club. We are granted the privilege to observe their lives – Miss I-put-my-children-above-my-own-happiness, Miss I-push-away-love-because-it-might-end-in-disaster, Miss Fine-I’ll-venture-into-online-dating-just-stop-pestering-me, and Mrs Why-is-my-husband-so-distant. A heart-warming movie if I ever saw one.
