    • Trivia
      Director Sarah Polley explained more about the color grading of the film, explaining how they played with saturation levels to create a feeling of "a world that had faded in the past". This is why the film appears to be almost black-and-white, but not quite.

    Women Talking is worthy of several (and inevitable) awards.
    If you enjoy reading my Spoiler-Free thoughts, please follow my blog to read my full review :)

    "Women Talking holds a lovely score by Hildur Guðnadóttir and features truly mesmerizing performances - Claire Foy being a clear standout - with emotionally powerful monologues that can break even the least sensitive viewer.

    Sarah Polley's exceptionally written and choreographed screenplay tremendously enriches the primary debate driven by the fully developed characters, where trauma, religion, acceptance, forgiveness, revenge, and power are some of the most memorable themes. The detail and complexity that go into each character demonstrate remarkable dedication and care.

    Worthy of several (and inevitable) awards."
