Review of I Am Woman

Reddy is a fantastic and ripe subject but this biopic is no more then a fuzzy Lifetime TV movie cover of her life. The movie glosses over her rise and stormy relationship with Wald (a sorely miscast Evan Peters with amateurish uneven Bronx by way of Midwest accent). It comes off as most other run of the mill rising star flicks - ambitious talented unknown from the sticks meets bad boy who gets hooked on drugs, mismanages career loses everything then star triumphs in the end regardless... Shout out to Cobham-Hervey who pulls off a convincing portrayal of Reddy. There should have been way more of her and less of Peters.
