From Ann Hornaday piece (“Lady Bird makes the case for reframing female stories as epics on a par with ‘male’ genres”) in Washington Post, posted on 11.9: “Lady Bird makes the case for reframing female stories as epics on a par with genres usually coded as male: Our heroine’s crucible might be a snug middle-class home and the sleepy streets of Sacramento, but Greta Gerwig‘s movie is just as big and canonical as a film about young men evacuating Dunkirk or the ponderous existential crisis of a blade runner in 2049 Los Angeles.”
