MISBEHAVIOUR! What an incredible film and incredi

MISBEHAVIOUR! What an incredible film and incredible evening! 🎥🎬

Jennifer Hosten, current resident of Oakville, native to Grenada, made history as the first woman of color to be crowned Miss World in 1970. Her victory took place during the height of the women’s liberation movement in the United Kingdom. Jennifer’s remarkable journey is brought to life in the feature film Misbehaviour.

Misbehaviour, is a 2020 British comedy-drama film about a group of women that hatched a plan to disrupt the 1970 Miss World beauty competition in London. The winner that year was Jennifer Hosten. The film is directed by Philippa Lowthorpe, from a screenplay by Gaby Chiappe and Rebecca Frayn, from a story by Frayn. The film stars Keira Knightley, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Jessie Buckley, Keeley Hawes, Phyllis Logan, Lesley Manville, Rhys Ifans and Greg Kinnear.

We were privileged to have Jennifer Hosten with us for Q&A after the viewing of the film.

If you weren’t able to attend last night’s film you can still hear all about Jennifer’s victory and her incredible achievements she’s pursued since her time as Miss World through Special Episode podcast by the Oakville Chamber of Commerce
