First #MeToo film, The Tale, gets standing ovation at Sundance


PARK CITY, UTAH—Filmmaker Jennifer Fox got an “A” for a confessional essay she wrote as a 13-year-old for her English class 45 years ago. It took decades for the truth to fully come out, culminating with an explosive autobiographical dramatic film, The Tale, which received a standing ovation following its world premiere Saturday at the Sundance Film Festival. The adult Jennifer doesn’t remember it that way, but admits her memory of 1973 is hazy. The Tale was a harrowing and “gruelling” experience both to live and to put on film, Fox told her Eccles Theatre audience, which gave her a standing ovation. Jennifer Fox's film 'The Tale' is autobiographical.
