Me hiciste pensar que merecía esto, que, si todo había terminado era por mí, que era yo quien exageraba, que todas las dudas y la desconfianza hicieron que te alejaras.

Pero siempre fuiste tú, siempre llamando la atención, ocultando cada traición, riéndote o pidiendo perdón para exponerme como la peor, siempre se trató de ti, de tu circo, de tu actuación.

promising young woman spoilers

i understand why people dont think promising young woman is a “female empowerment” movie or a “revenge fantasy” movie, but i think thats the point?? the entire movie cassie was desperately trying to find ways to get people to see what happened to nina as something other than a little mistake. 

nobody, even nina’s mom, wants to really look at what happened in the eye. everyone (everyone!) just wants to move on. but not cassie. when cassie reaches the last leg of her journey, she knows that she might not make it, so she has a contingency plan, just in case. i think she foresaw her potential disappearance as another instance of people sweeping crimes under the rug. sure enough, her ex and her murderer begin the process but her forethought ensures that she will not be forgotten

she wasnt the “badass” female character that takes no prisoners and punishes her enemies in a way that the audience feels is morally justifiable. she forces her enemies to feel what she’s felt for seven years, in whatever way best suits that particular person

and the ending it just that. forcing these people – that hurt nina and herself – to pay for their wrongs. she even forces the lawyer to make amends by putting him in charge of her last statement. (and i think this also showed that if someone truly wanted to redeem themselves however possible they can take those steps. cassie trusted no man other than her father but she gave the lawyer a chance which he took)

i get why people were disappointed. they wanted a moment away from grim reality. they didnt want a women having to find retribution in death. but she was willing to do what nobody else would: risk her life and give up her potential happiness for what was right. 

so no the movie wasnt killing eve female assassins ruthlessly taking down men (the director was a showrunner for killing eve btw) but it was a movie that demanded justice despite the ramifications
