Still, it was the first Oscar-worthy love story about a female couple in which a man does not steal focus and that doesn't end in disaster or death for the women.
The film, starring Cate Blanchett as the titular Carol, a soon-to-be-divorced New Jersey socialite and mother who falls for Rooney Mara's Therese, the shopgirl who is, as Carol notes, "flung out of space," earned six Oscar nominations, even if it was snubbed in the Best Picture category. To hear some of the horror stories is challenging, but I think it makes me even more determined to do something about it.More than half a century after Patricia Highsmith's groundbreaking 1952 novel The Price of Salt/Carol was released, Todd Haynes's big-screen adaptation Carol became revolutionary in its own way. "I have got a lot of girlfriends who come to this beach. "We're talking about how to encourage safety, and in the 90s there was a whistle project that was very effective where if people felt threatened they'd blow a whistle, and if other people were in the neighbourhood they'd blow the whistle, there'd be a critical mass and that may scare perpetrators away," he said. Naturist Wayne Penn has proposed handing whistles to beachgoers to increase safety. "If the beach was properly signposted I believe we'd have a much better situation for women and all naturist beach users." "There's no signage on this beach and it's one of the few nude beaches I've ever been to with no signage to advise people where it's OK to be naked and where it's not to be.
"I do want to emphasise the people doing those assaults are not naturists they're people who come down here because it's a faraway beach and they think they can get away with it here," Mr Dobney said.
