Nia DaCosta's 'Hedda': A Genre-Defying Ibsen Adaptation
Originally Published 2 months ago — by The New York Times
Nia DaCosta's sumptuous adaptation of 'Hedda Gabler' relocates the classic to 1950s England, exploring themes of women's freedom and societal constraints through a biracial, bisexual Hedda, with a focus on personal agency and identity. The film has received mixed reviews but is noted for DaCosta's visual and narrative craftsmanship.
