"Depression and anger gave way to blinding rage at my powerlessness over the unfair whims of men"
This month I saw two movies where the lead role was played by Jessica Chastain - terrific Miss Sloane and entertaining Molly's Game. Chastain was Golden Globe nominated for both, missed the Oscar nomination last year and who knows if she makes it next week. I decided to do a double post feature on them, because while it's Molly's Game that is getting attention right now it's a shame Miss Sloane, a much better movie, didn't get the spotlight last year.
Miss Sloane: In the high-stakes world of political power-brokers, Elizabeth Sloane is the most sought after and formidable lobbyist in D.C. But when taking on the most powerful opponent of her career, she finds winning may come at too high a price.
Molly's Game: The true story of Molly Bloom, an Olympic-class skier who ran the world's most exclusive high-stakes poker game and became an FBI target.
While both films are great to watch, Molly's Game is disappointing when it comes to the script. And that is a huge let down, considering it's written by Aaron Sorkin. In comparison, Miss Sloane was written by Jonathan Perera and it was his very first script. Sorkn could actually learn a thing or two from Perera. Miss Sloane is tightly written but it breathes, which cannot be said about Molly's Game. While the story is very interesting, the film is quite exhausting. Not only is it Sorkin dialogue, but then the story - in Stefon's voice - it has everything: quick poker tutorial for the audience, Italian mob, Russian mob, Bloom's sport career, assault, drug addiction - it's just overwhelming. The characters get lost in there somewhere and it's all Sorkin's fault for clipping the cast members' wings.

What doesn't help is that there are several arcs in the film that feel unresolved and abandoned and some that are just poorly written.The best example of that is the father/daughter arc which is ridden with cliches and frankly insulting both to the audience and to the protagonist. So all of this was because of her daddy issues? And the way Sorkin tells us that is in a clumsy 5-minute long sequence that is so cliche and cringe worthy I was legitimately expecting sepia-toned flashback of little Molly seeing her dad doing freaky stuff with his mistress in a car.
Molly's Game also makes countless efforts of getting the audience to sympathize with the protagonist - she gets savagely beaten up in a very brutal scene that doesn't fit the rest of the movie, she cares about the degenerate gamblers and wants to protect them and their families and she, apparently, subconsciously punishes her dad for being unfaithful. Sorkin bends over backwards to add depth to his heroine but none of that really works because we don't really get to know Molly, not in a movie where people talk like they did several lines of cocaine and the story continuously jumps around in time and space.

Some people are cold. Some people are calculating. And sometimes they become like that not through one event, that you can show in a movie in 2 minutes in a big scene filled with tears, screams and reveals, but they were becoming that slowly, through their entire lives. Which doesn't mean they lost the ability to do something good. Another thing about Miss Sloane is that the character's actions that hurt others are not forgiven. You expect them to be, because this always happens in movies, but it doesn't happen here.

This shouldn't really be happening, though. In a film like this, it is the protagonist who should easily have the most memorable scene. Sorkin allows Elba to steal the spotlight, because Chastain doesn't have a moment big enough to really burn in your memory. She is solid throughout but in Miss Sloane there are several moments that are very surprising and impactful, that will make me rewatch that movie over and over again.
What needs to be praised about both movies, though, is that neither Elizabeth Sloane nor Molly Bloom have a love interest in the film. There is no romance arc in these movies. Hollywood executives seem to be convinced that for women to enjoy movies there must always be a romance but that's not true. Yes, Chastain does have nice chemistry with Lacy and Elba, but these films prove that a well written, interesting female protagonist does not need a man to chase after or chase her in order for her actions and feelings to interest the audience.
