Since its premiere at the 60th New York Film Festival in October, the drama has been praised for its precise approach to journalistic storytelling, which is reminiscent of 2016 Oscar-winner Spotlight: rather than sensationalising the efforts of Kantor and Twohey or the testimonies of the survivors who spoke out against Weinstein, it provides the grounded, granular detail of what goes into such a difficult investigation, without undercutting the emotional ordeal for the women involved.
