A Dangerous Woman
Watch TrailerMartha Horgan is a withdrawn, mentally disabled woman who lives with her aunt, Frances. One of Martha's unusual traits is that she doesn't lie, a quality that leads to her getting fired from a dry-cleaning shop thanks to the actions of the shifty Getso. Conflict seems to follow Martha, since she also becomes romantically involved with local fix-it man, Mackey, who is sleeping with Frances as well.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The film constructs a poignant character study, relying on the stark contrast between the protagonist's disabling honesty and the pervasive deceit of her environment. It explores vulnerability and social predation through the lens of a woman who cannot conform.
What lingers after viewing is a profound unease about the cruelty inflicted upon innocence and the high cost of truth in a world built on lies. A sobering reflection on morality and manipulation. — MovieFinder Editorial
