‘Babygirl’

What to Watch

If you weren’t brave enough to see the kinky Nicole Kidman BDSM movie in theaters, good news: You can now watch Babygirl on digital at home. Written and directed by Halina Reijn, who put herself on the filmmaking map with 2022’s Bodies Bodies BodiesBabygirl stars Kidman as a high-ranking CEO who secretly just wants to be told what do to. Or at least, that’s what she wants when she’s having sex. She falls into a salacious affair with her young intern, played by Harris Dickinson, and he’s more than happy to give her what she wants. Uncomfortable at times, Babygirl flips the script on performative female pleasure, and offers a raw, unflinching look at the messy nature of desire.
