Why watch this film?
Based on the story of Michelle Payne, the only jockey to win the Melbourne Cup, 'Ride Like a Girl' does justice to the emotion you expect when it comes to a story about achieving dreams. The true story itself already brings some tragic events - such as Payne's fall at the beginning of her career that caused multiple fractures that delayed her progress in the sport - but her father's (played by Sam Neill) sympathy gives the perfect touch to turn this story into a sensitive and tender family entertainment.

Drama
Boston Strangler
In the 1960s, the American city of Boston began to suffer from a series of mysterious murders, in which elderly women were violently killed with nylon stockings tied around their necks. In the investigations of the crimes, two names stood out: journalists Loretta McLaughlin (Keira Knightley) and Jean Cole (Carrie Coon). While the police remained inactive, the two broke down prejudices and became the first to uncover links between the crimes and to show them on the newspaper's front page. This is the story of 'The Boston Strangler', a drama with suspenseful touches, originally from Star+ that follows the behind-the-scenes of this journalistic investigation. In addition to talking a lot about the crime itself and how it actually represented violence against women, the film directed and written by Matt Ruskin (Crown Heights) exalts these two women and shows how difficult and important it is to be so ahead of their time.
