Make it stand out.

Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.

I'm Your Woman by Julia Hart is a crime drama that centers on a character who is always on the outskirts of things, the wife of a crime boss.

Rachel Brosnahan plays Jean, a woman married to a gangster, and as his wife, Eddie (Bill Heck) keeps her out of his criminal activities. She is there to entertain him, and Hart makes it clear from the start that Jean lacks ambition of her own. She wears what he tells her, does what he tells her, and doesn't question him when he brings home a baby. She agrees to be its mother at his command.

Naturally, Jean struggles to raise the child, but her life is turned upside down when Eddie's associates inform her that she must flee their home or risk being killed. Jean has no choice but to do as they say, and it is frustrating for us to see how her questions go unanswered and how she is treated with impatience. Jean's entire existence at this point in the film is beyond irritating. Her world is a lonely one, where she is married to a man she will never truly know, and she is now on the run with no one to rely on.

We spend a lot of time in silence with Jean in the safe house, as she stares at the wallpapers, waiting for someone to come and save her.

Instead of peaceful, it feels stoic, and while she still has the baby, which helps, the baby is not an adult companion, nor can it converse.

While on the run, she meets Cal (Arinze Kene) and Terri (Marsha Stephanie Blake), who serve as foils to Jean and Eddie. Terri, unlike Jean, has agency, and she knows everything there is to know about Cal, having no qualms about venturing into criminal territory to ask the pertinent questions. But Jean has her own concerns, and she becomes determined to get things moving so that she can reclaim her life. Hart makes her journey realistic by not becoming a gun-toting gangster wife herself. She does, however, receive some gun training, indicating that she may eventually become an active participant in this plot.

When there is violence, the others do everything they can to keep Jean away from it. Jean admits her naiveté, desiring to escape this criminal nightmare but realizing that she must confront it if she is to reclaim her life. So, yes, it is an intriguing character piece. And, as annoying as Jean is, Brosnahan portrays her as nuanced and relatable. However, because we are following a character who does not have power in the criminal organization, there are many moments where nothing happens, with Hart using silence and to give us a sense of Jean's plight.

I'm Your Woman changes everything we know about the crime genre by telling the story of a character who is frequently overlooked. Jean can be difficult to follow, but she is a very feminine character who eventually sees the light.

The film concludes with a much-needed character arc.
