Presentata al Sundance il mese scorso, la nuova commedia interpretata da Emma Thompson è ambientata nel mondo della tv e dei talk di seconda serata, una fascia decisiva e molto, molto agguerrita.
Late Night è diretto da Nisha Ganatra ed è interpretato anche da Mindy Kaling, Max Casella, Hugh Dancy, John Lithgow e Amy Ryan.
Uscirà nelle sale americane il 7 giugno ed è distribuito da Amazon.
Katherine Newbury (Emma Thompson) is a pioneer and legendary host on the late-night talk-show circuit. When she’s accused of being a “woman who hates women,” she puts affirmative action on the to-do list, and—presto!—Molly (Mindy Kaling) is hired as the one woman in Katherine’s all-male writers’ room. But Molly might be too little too late, as the formidable Katherine also faces the reality of low ratings and a network that wants to replace her. Molly, wanting to prove she’s not simply a diversity hire who’s disrupting the comfort of the brotherhood, is determined to help Katherine by revitalizing her show and career—and possibly effect even bigger change at the same time. Late Night takes on white privilege, entitlement, and a culture veering toward crassness and conservatism. Challenging the limitations placed on women in power, the film delivers a sophisticated comedy that champions a new order centering the strengths of women and diverse voices.

C’è Dame Emma Thompson, la mia preferita in assoluto. Fosse la volta buona che l’Academy la ricandidi all’Oscar, da cui manca ben dal lontano 1996.
