"The Tale": Astonishing New Movie Tackles Filmmaker Jennifer Fox's Reckoning with Child Sexual Abuse

As the #MeToo movement has inspired women around the world to come forward with their stories of sexual harassment, abuse and assault, we turn to a remarkable new film that is a narrative memoir about a woman's own reckoning with childhood sexual abuse. It is directed by the woman who experienced the abuse: Jennifer Fox. It premieres May 26 on HBO. "The Tale" premiered earlier this year at the Sundance Film Festival. The film's stars include Laura Dern, Ellen Burstyn, Jason Ritter and Common. The film received rave reviews, with The Guardian calling it "a stunning sexual abuse drama" and "the mother of all #MeToo movies." We speak with Jennifer Fox, the writer and director of "The Tale," in New York City.
