Sure, the narrative is all about one woman’s journey, based on emotions and relationships and all that “girly” stuff.

I was alerted to this news story by moviemavengal‘s twitter, feed and it made me so happy! And then to fluff up this post, I found some other random upcoming film news floating about the internet.
