‘Two Women’ movie review: Canadian comedy is stuck in its past

What Happened
Director Chloé Robichaud's remake of Claude Founier's 1970 film Two Women follows two unsatisfied women navigating loveless marriages and personal constraints. The story centers on Violette, a postpartum mother, and Florence, her neighbor seeking freedom from antidepressants. Despite modern setting, the film fails to refresh dated tropes about women seeking solutions beyond domestic dissatisfaction, remaining overshadowed by source material.
