A Good Woman Is Hard to Find (2019) by Abner Pastoll
#1
{seen on Kanopy]

In northern Ireland, a young woman recently widowed (husband was murdered) tries to support herself and two young kids.  Through no fault of her own, she runs afoul of drug dealers.  Armed only with her accent, she takes on the dealers.  Unfortunately, they are equally armed with accents.

I don't quite understand the title, which gives the impression of a romantic comedy.  Nope, this is a woman pitted against seemingly insurmountable odds.

The poster shows her with an axe.  An axe does enter the picture, but her wits and other weapons take center stage.

Solid fare.  Great acting.  But perhaps not your cup of tea unless for some reason you're interested in northern Ireland.

I'm not saying the Northern Irish accent is the worst irish accent but that's exactly what I'm saying.

Where did you find this?
As a matter of fact, my anger does keep me warm

Are you just focusing upon movies with posters of women with axes right now?

Just updated my post with Seen on Kanopy.  Keep forgetting to say.

Axe-ually, I'm just going through my axe period.  It's sort of like Picasso's blue period, only slightly different.  I might see Violent Santa next--in celebration of it being 294 days till Xmas.

That's exactly what I was thinking. And it's somewhat unsettling...
