Tate Taylor assembled a large cast of famous actors including Alison Janney, Mila Kunis, Awkwafina and more. As a dark humor-themed film, Yuba County Breaking News tells a qualified story. . .
The female protagonist Sue Buttons is middle-aged, has a dull life, and is unknown. . . On the birthday, everything went wrong: the name of the cake was spelled wrong, and the colleague didn't remember her birthday (they also helped others celebrate the birthday that day). . Er, I bumped into the scene of my husband's derailment that day, and then the husband was so frightened that he died suddenly on the spot. Since then, the heroine was inspired by the report of the missing girl on TV, quietly buried her husband's body, and concocted the story of her husband's kidnapping and disappearance to gain media attention and public sympathy. As the story progresses, she gets into trouble with her deceased husband, crime, murder ensues, and things get out of hand. . .
Tate Taylor's crime comedy drives back to a time when Hollywood focused on entertaining, quicky films with unique stories and great casts. The result is a delightful film that imagines what a woman pushed to the edge would do to get back at her husband and her community. The script, by Black writer Amanda Idoko, talented one. Also important is how Breaking News in Yuba County doesn't make a big deal out of the cast's gender, racial, and sexual diversity. It offers truly meaningful representation in the sense that no character is perfect or fits into an expected/accepted mold. Because no character is overtly defined by their race or other social factors, the characterizations get to shine, allowing viewers to see characters as flawed, unique individuals.
