Wait, maybe it's a different substitution. Sometimes letters are shifted differently for each position, like the Vigenère cipher with a key. If I assume the key is "women", let's see. Let me write out the letters. For "mtrjm", key "WOMEN".

m → i (12 -14= -2 +26=24 → i is 8? Wait, 12-14 is -2, mod26=24 → Y? Wait, letters are A=0, B=1,... Z=25. So m is 12. 12 -14 = -2 +26 = 24 → Y. t=19-14=5 → F. r=17-14=3 → D. j=9-14= -5 +26=21 → V. m=12-14= -2+26=24 → Y. So "mtrjm" becomes "YFDVY". Not helpful. Let's try shifting by 16 instead. m=12+16=28 mod26=2 → C. t=19+16=35 mod26=9 → J. r=17+16=33 mod26=7 → H. j=9+16=25 → Z. m=12+16=28 mod26=2 → C. So "CJHZC". Not helpful. Maybe shifting letters forward by 2. m→o, t→v, r→t, j→l, m→o → "ovtlo". No.

Wait, maybe the encoded part is split into two phrases. Let's try another approach. If we take "mtrjm" and apply a shift of 1 forward: n, u, s, k, n → "nuskn". No. Backward by 5: m→h, t→o, r→m, j→d, m→h → "hodmh". No. What if we take each pair of letters? "mt rj m" and "aw n l" etc. That might not be it.

W(22), O(14), M(12), E(4), N(13). For each letter in "mtrjm" (12,19,17,9,12):

First letter m (12): m - key letter w (22). If it's a Vigenère decryption, it's (m - w) mod 26. So (12 -22) = -10 mod26 = 16 → Q. Wait, that doesn't seem right. Maybe using the formula for decryption: (plaintext) = (ciphertext - key) mod 26. So if the encrypted letter is m (12), and the key is W (22), then (12 - 22 +26) mod26=16 → Q. So first letter is Q. Then second letter t (19) - key O(14) = 19-14=5 → F. Third letter r(17) - M(12)=5 → F. Fourth letter j(9) - E(4)=5→F. Fifth letter m(12)-N(13)= (12-13 +26)=25→Z. So "QFF FZ". Not making sense. Let's try shifting by key letters as shifts. Maybe the key is "WOMAN" since it's the movie "99 Women". Let me try with key "99 Women" but that's complicated. Alternatively, maybe the decoded text is "Marco Bellocchio" but I can't see that.

Now, the encoded part: "mtrjm awn layn - fydyw lfth". It looks like a substitution cipher. Maybe each letter is shifted by a certain number. Let me try a Caesar cipher. Let's take "mtrjm". If I shift each letter back by 2, m becomes k, t becomes r, r becomes p, j becomes h, m becomes k. Hmm, that gives "krphk", which doesn't make sense. Let's try shifting forward. If I shift each letter by 3: m→p, t→w, r→u, j→m, m→p → "pwump". No. Maybe shift back by 1: m→l, t→s, r→q, j→i, m→l → "lsqil". Not helpful. Let's try shifting by 4 backwards: m→i, t→p, r→n, j→f, m→i → "ipnfi". No. Hmm. Maybe it's a Vigenère cipher? But that requires a key. Alternatively, maybe the letters are reversed. Let's reverse each part: "mtrjm awn layn" becomes "mjrtm wna nayl". Still not helpful. Or maybe splitting into two words: "mtrjm" and "awn layn".
