Promising Young Woman (*****)

Once a high-achieving medical student, Cassie (Carey Mulligan) was regarded as a Promising Young Woman (18s) until a mysterious event derailed her life. Working as a waitress, Cassie now offers a different kind of promise, luring predatory men into her web before terrorising them into seeing the error of their ways.
