Thanks for sharing! This sounds great. For those curious, I met a little old lady decades ago. She told a story one time of her being one of the first women to swim the english channel! (I would guess around the 1960s.) She said they stayed in a village for weeks, and every morning get up ready to go. They would wait for a guy in a boat to come back and give them a good/bad report (usually bad) on the weather and water conditions. If good, they all jumped in the water and took off. |
Well, what a pleasant surprise! I had no idea this was being made. But it had great critic and audience reviews, and I like Ridley as an actress (and she seems to be a delightful person too), so I watched it quickly. It's a very good, if not incredible, movie. Story was great, direction was well done, it never lagged, sets/production were very good, and every actor was just about perfect. It's an emotional, heart-warming, feel good film about the triumph of the human will against the strictures of society and the raw power of brute nature. And yes, I cried for many minutes at the end. 8/10 and the 10bit-GalaxyRG265 version is once again a perfect size to quality ratio. Thanks TG! |
Interesting period historical film. We pretty much all know of Daisy Ridley, but less about the director— Joachim Rønning. He was also the director of a couple episodes of Netflix's super expensive period piece TV Show "Marco Polo", the "Maleficient" sequel, and the 5th "Pirates of the Carribean" film (Dead Men Tell No Tales). He seems to have mostly been a gun for hire with regards to directing, but got in good with The Mouse toward the end, and this is one of his first original films in a decade. Looking forward to seeing how well this is put together. Thanks for the upload! Much appreciated! |
I'm very interested in this movie only because of the director, who directed the upcoming TRON 3 (Ares). I have such high hopes for that movie, and I liked Maleficent 2 and his Pirates of the Caribbean was ok... The Young Woman and the Sea looks promising so i'll give it a shot later this week. |
A 10 V 10 sadly the chuds are already kvetching about this movie |
"The chuds"? I don't see any kvetching either. Sounds like you need to get outside & feel a breeze on your skin for the first time in ages! |
In this anti-female climate, why would you name your movie, "Young Woman and the Sea", practically ensuring 35% of the population will simply knee-jerk REJECT it? Should have titled it "Swimming the Channel" or "Swimming to France" or "She Swam to France" |
It's a play on the Hemmingway classic, innit. |
It is not "anti-female" climate. It is anti down-your-throat woke feminism climate and is getting stronger. |
A movie about swimming? Okay. Any micro bikinis involved to sweeten it up a bit? |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gertrude_Ederle At the 1924 Summer Olympics in Paris, Ederle won a gold medal as a member of the first-place U.S. team in the 4×100 meter freestyle relay. Together with her American relay teammates Euphrasia Donnelly, Ethel Lackie and Mariechen Wehselau, she set a new world record of 4:58.8 in the event final. Individually, she received bronze medals for finishing third in the women's 100-meter |
"steadfast support of the women" ... "fights to overcome adversity" ... "the animosity of a patriarchal society" ... "Against all odds" ... "staggering and dangerous" ... "to become the first woman." Yawn. Hollywood has lost all perspective, humor, and irony. |
Daisy in a swimsuit? I'll check this out. Maybe there will be a scene where she undresses to change out of a wet swimsuit. |
The adult section has skunks. We want to see famous beautiful women unclothed, not skunks. |
In that case try watching more movies instead of screenshot |
Remember, it's a period piece, so the bathing suits of that era were pretty modest, and even though she was American, I'm sure her character had fairly tame sensibilities where nudity was concerned. |
