New Trailer Released for ‘Women Talking’

MGM has released a new trailer for Women Talking, their upcoming drama film where eight women from an isolated Mennonite colony grapple with reconciling their reality with their faith after it is revealed that men from their community drugged and raped the community’s women at night for years. The film has received numerous accolades, including the Robert Altman Award from the Independent Spirit Awards.

In his review out of the Telluride Film Festival, our own Joey Magidson called the movie “electrically compelling,” which is actually quoted in today’s trailer. His full Telluride review can be found here.

Directed by Sarah Polley, the film’s cast includes Rooney Mara, Claire Foy, Jessie Buckley, Judith Ivey, and Ben Whishaw. The movie will be released on December 23rd in theaters, and is projected to become a strong contender during the upcoming awards season.You can watch the new trailer for Women Talking below, and don’t forget to let us know what you think in the comments:
