About Assent of a Woman
Liz Smith has decided to run for mayor. Having 'no name recognition', she drops her top and puts forward her two best assets. Campaign strategist Roy decides to mount more than a good offense and ex-boyfriend Rob cannot resist one last time. Mayor Nick Brown is more concerned with the political party that's going on between his assistant's legs than the issues at hand. So sit down and tune in to the results. You'll never see another campaign run quite like this.
Directed by Jim Enright, Assent of a Woman leans on a strong ensemble — Alexis De Vell, Lacy Rose, Serenity — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1993.
