Las mujeres se unen.
Cuenta la historia de las sufragistas inglesas en los albores de la Primera Guerra Mundial. La mayoría de estas mujeres no venían de clases altas, sino que eran mujeres trabajadoras que veían cómo sus protestas pacíficas no servían para nada. Radicalizadas y volviendo su lucha cada vez más violenta, estaban dispuestas a perderlo todo en su búsqueda incansable de la igualdad: sus trabajos, sus casas, sus hijos y sus vidas. Esta es la historia de Maud (Carey Mulligan), una de estas mujeres, y de su lucha por la dignidad y la de sus compañeras.

Helena Bonham Carter
Edith Ellyn
In the movie 'Suffragette' (2015), Helena Bonham Carter portrays Emmeline Pankhurst, a pioneering leader of the British women's suffrage movement. This role is notable in her career as it represents a departure from her often eccentric or gothic characters, allowing her to embody a real historical figure with gravitas and political passion. Unlike her earlier and more fantastical roles, such as Bellatrix Lestrange in the 'Harry Potter' series or Mrs. Lovett in 'Sweeney Todd,' this performance highlights her ability to convey strong, determined leadership in a grounded, dramatic context. It stands out by showcasing her range and commitment to portraying characters who have significantly impacted social change.
Meryl Streep
Emmeline Pankhurst
Fans of Meryl Streep might enjoy her role in 'Suffragette' because it showcases her powerful presence and commitment to portraying strong, complex women fighting for justice—qualities that have defined many of her most iconic performances, such as her role as Miranda Priestly in 'The Devil Wears Prada.' However, unlike the sophisticated and commanding Priestly, Streep's character in 'Suffragette' is deeply rooted in historical activism and social change, offering a raw and emotional portrayal of the women's suffrage movement. An interesting detail about her casting is that Streep actually met with real-life suffragettes' descendants to prepare for the role, adding a personal and authentic touch to her performance.
