Featuring @freidapinto (who is also an executive producer), @sopedirisu, @ashleyparklady, @ojacksoncohen, @zawe and @theojamesofficial, @mrmalcolmslist is the perfect (official) start to summer movies — coming to theaters tomorrow on July 1st!
When she fails to meet an item on his list of requirements for a bride, Julia Thistlewaite (Zawe Ashton) is jilted by London’s most eligible bachelor, Mr. Malcolm (Ṣọpẹ́ Dìrísù). Feeling humiliated and determined to exact revenge, she convinces her friend Selina Dalton (Freida Pinto) to play the role of his ideal match. Soon, Mr. Malcolm wonders whether he’s found the perfect woman...or the perfect hoax.
In @freidapinto words, she’s proud to see #mrmalcolmslist is a female-driven project, with women serving as director, producers and writer.
“I can’t wait until that doesn’t seem like a big deal,” she says. “It should just be organic and normal for women to feel seen and represented in movies, as much behind the camera as in front. We need complexity. We need humor. We need sadness, romance, beauty and ugliness, all of it. We want to be seen in all our colors.” — @freidapinto 💭
Stay tuned for #browngirlmag's review of the film by Canada's @nasimafancy.📝🙌🏿

In all transparency, the businesses we feature have paid a small fee in exchange for brand awareness. But it'll be worth it, we promise. 💥 So, if you or someone you know has started a biz and needs some love, email us at sales@browngirlmagazine.com.
