Ann Lee Musical: Raw, Real, and Rated R
Update: 2025-12-25
Description
Mona Fastvold and Brady Corbets The Testament of Ann Lee is a bold new musical starring Amanda Seyfried as the real-life Shaker leader. Shot on seventy-millimeter film, it delves into Ann Lees life, from her heavenly visions as a child to her leadership of the Shakers in upstate New York. Despite the communitys decline, Fastvold and Corbets film spotlights this overlooked story, blending agony and ecstasy into hymn-based musical numbers. Seyfried delivers a powerful performance, singing, dancing, and rawly portraying childbirth and grief. Rated R for sexual content, nudity, violence, and blood, this Searchlight Pictures release is a singular vision that lingers.
