Brandy Burre discovered she was pregnant after landing a breakthrough role on HBO’s iconic drama The Wire. She hid the pregnancy for months, finished the job, and retired to a small town in the Hudson Valley. After years of playing the role of wife and mother, Burre decided to re-enter the acting business. Actress intimately observes the seismic impact of this decision on the cozy domestic world she spent years carefully cultivating. The latest movie from director Robert Greene (Kati with an I, Fake It So Real), Actress is an exhilarating, visionary filmmaking coinciding with unpredictable real-world developments. It’s also a blistering look at what happens when a woman decides to grab hold of her destiny. Plays with “***Flawless” (dir. Jake Nava, 4 min.), a dazzling, straight-shooting feminist declaration from pop icon Beyoncé and Nigerian author Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie. (CB)
