Lily Allen Takes Aim at Patriarchy in Suffragette Clip

In a bold move, Lily Allen has led the Suffragettes in a new clip from Virginia Woolf's Night And Day, bringing her signature wit and charm to the fight for women's rights. The scene is set in Edwardian England, where Mary Datchet, played by Allen, rallies the troops with her trademark humor and passion. With Katherine Hilbery (Haley Bennet) by her side, they're unstoppable.

The clip marks a pivotal moment in the film, which is an adaptation of Woolf's 1919 novel of the same name. It's a story about two women - Allen's fearless, funny Datchet and Bennet's passionate astronomer Katherine Hilbery - who have different ideas on romance and success. But when they put aside their differences, they become an unstoppable force for change.

Directed by Tina Gharavi, Virginia Woolf's Night And Day also stars Jack Whitehall as frustrated poet William Rodney and Elyas M'Ba in a supporting role. The film is a timely reminder of the struggles faced by women during this period and how their stories continue to inspire us today.
