‘Reality’
The new Sydney Sweeney MAX film, Reality takes “based on a true story” to a whole new level. Adapted from Satter’s 2019 stage play, Is This A Room, the movie depicts the real-life FBI interrogation of 25-year-old Reality Winner (played by Sweeney), a former NSA translator who was arrested in 2017 for leaking classified documents to the press. At the very beginning of the movie, viewers are told that all of the dialogue has been taken, verbatim, from a transcript of the actual FBI recording of Winner’s interrogation. It’s a fascinating acting challenge, and the Euphoria star more than rises to the occasion. She does, in fact, have the range, darling.
