The 'Star Wars' and 'Magpie' actress faces the seas in Joachim Ronning's portrait of Gertrude Ederle, the first woman to swim across the English Channel.
Gertrude Ederle loved the water. “To me, the sea is like a person — like a child I’ve known a long time,”) to defy odds and sexist naysayers. In 1926, Ederle swam the English Channel in 14 hours and 31 minutes, beating the previous world record, which was held by a man. Her accomplishment helped change perceptions about women in competitive sports. When Ederle returned to New York, the city feted her with a parade on a scale never seen before .
There’s no shortage of shots of Ridley, staring across bodies of water with awe and severity. Her shoulders rounded, poised to dive at a moment’s notice. While there’s some poignancy to these bits, most of the emotional profundity is undercut by Nathanson’s by-the-book screenplay. The delicate dramatic threads and subtext of Ederle’s life, then, like Netflix’s recentFrom a young age, Trudy defied odds. Nathanson and Rønning move efficiently through her early life.
Ridley holds her own as Trudy. She plays the character’s awkwardness and introversion in a way that recalls the protagonist of. The actress gives a convincing physical performance, too, both in the water and on land.
