I reviewed the film Baby Girl (dir: Halina Reijn, 2024) for Frieze

“Instead of exploring the intricacies of submission, consent and trust that circumscribe actual BDSM relationships, we are immersed in a poorly executed plot of intrigue that tries to upend power and gender dynamics in the workplace in a reversal of roles that feels about as feminist as Fifty Shades of Grey (2015), if better acted.”
