Misbehaviour
Details
Inspired by real events, Misbehaviour follows the compelling story of Sally Alexander (played by Keira Knightley), a passionate activist determined to dismantle the inherent objectification and inequality prevalent in beauty pageants. Alongside Sally, a group of like-minded women form an audacious plan to stage a protest during the live broadcast of the competition, capturing the attention of millions worldwide.
The film provides a thought-provoking and powerful exploration of the opposing viewpoints surrounding the Miss World pageant. While the contestants, including the ambitious Jennifer Hosten (portrayed by Gugu Mbatha-Raw), strive to challenge stereotypes and pave their own paths, the protesters believe that the competition perpetuates harmful beauty standards and gender inequality.
Misbehaviour masterfully weaves together themes of empowerment, resilience, and the fight for equal representation. It highlights the courage of these women as they challenge societal norms and strive for a more inclusive and just world. With stunning performances and a compelling narrative, this film is a must-watch for those seeking inspiration and a deeper understanding of the struggles faced by women in the 1970s.
