Ultimate Gift Picks For the Woman Who’s Killing It at Work and Losing It at Home
We're looking at you, Babygirl.
In partnership with A24.
If you identify as the female equivalent of a “film bro” – you know, the girl who streams film scores at work and makes it her mission to get tickets to every A24 release – then Babygirl has been on your radar for a while now. But if it’s not? Don’t worry, we’re about to put you onto your next obsession. (Sorry, Cynthia and Ariana, but we’re holding space for Babygirl now.)
Nicole Kidman stars as Romy, a CEO who finds herself caught up in a dangerous (and, let’s be honest, dangerously hot) game of seduction with her intern Samuel, played by zillennial heartthrob Harris Dickinson. Despite having a husband and two daughters at home, Romy just can’t resist Samuel’s charm – which includes calling her a “good girl” and having her lap milk off a plate. Before you judge, remember: we come to Babygirl for the magic, not to kink shame.
Nicole delivers one of her best performances as a complex, tortured, and impeccably dressed high-powered CEO. The second the credits roll, everyone in your group chat will be plotting ways to channel Romy’s powerful yet unhinged energy. To make their (and your) lives easier, we’ve put together the ultimate gift guide for all the Romys and Romy wannabes in your life.
