In the seventies, during the ‘explosion’ of films focusing on journalistic investigations, political corruption was the main issue when it came to digging the drains of the system. Great conspiracies and conspiracy theories continue to exist in our time, but besides these abstractions we also find much more immediate problems with the world. attacks on children and women.
Our Watergate is MeToo and thanks to him, fictions have proliferated revolving around how men deliberately use their power and will over women, and how the law of silence and impunity is upheld around her actions. To understand the magnitude of the event sooner or later it was inevitable that the figure of Harvey Weinstein would be openly addressed. And what better way to do it through the two women who helped bring the case to light? Jodie Kantor and Megan TwoheyWhen two journalists from The New York Times began investigating harassment in Hollywood, everything was against them. But they contributed to the emergence of the scandal and change the mentality of the whole society. How did they do? This is exactly the subject “In the open (said)”a story that continues its awakening “All the President’s Men” Two reporters who dare to challenge the guts of power on this occasion, with their meticulousness and precision when it comes to following the movements of journalists step by step.
Director Maria Schrader accompanies the screenplay by playwright Rebecca Lenkiewicz, adapting the ‘bestseller’ of Kantor and Twohey and accompanies Carey Mulligan and Zoe Kazan for the composition. a tense and exciting story about the beginning of the feminist struggle in our time and the corresponding awareness. Nothing remains and nothing is missing. All the scrutiny up to a point is too much and lacks epicness, although at some point the route may be getting repetitive, but what is sought here is to show how fear collapses to reveal the beast. That’s what’s really exciting.
