What does 'schoolgirl's wrists and ankles bound behind her back with older man's necktie' mean, for instance? Then there were extended sections of the film where the girl enjoyed lying on the bed with her head hanging over the edge, mouth open. What's the import there? Is it a statement about women's liberation?
I learned later, too, that the film is part of a trilogy that includes Young Rebellious Girl does Anal with Therapist and My Friends Tag Teamed my Sister. The second film, apparently, attracted great interest at Cannes. I personally don't get it. Maybe art films just aren't for me.
I agree, Tyrion. I abandoned them myself, decades ago.
I didn't realize we were rating such films in this thread. What a waste of potential, I should have several hundred more entries by now.Quote:

There are always several hundred entries in films like that.Quote:

'9 to 5', an 80's comedy about women in the workplace. Dolly Parton and other women who are tired of working in a man's world. Very entertaining and some great scenes about the treatment of women in some places and by some people.
I remember seeing that when it first came out. Lily Tomlin, Dolly Parton, and Jane Fonda are a heck of a team, and Dabney Coleman was a perfect foil. Great fun at the time, though I have no idea how it's aged.Quote:

I saw a few days The Film Crew's mocking commentary during the 1958 movie "The Wild Women of Wongo". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QpoOKWhJFNo
I am still trying to figure out if I am glad I watched it or not. If you have absolutely nothing better to do, you might try this.
Score: 1/10
My wife and I watched the film "Suffragette" and throughly enjoyed it. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suffragette_(film)
I think it is surprising how many things in it still apply, even though it is a comedy and should be seen as such, women are still getting harassed (by some people not all of course) and one point was made when one of them didn't get a promotion it was because 'people trust men better when it comes to numbers' , I think similar situations happen every now and then still today over 30 years after the movie was released...Quote:

Watched Julieta today. Good argument (based on three stories by Alice Munro), good acting, beautiful scenery. But where is Almodovar?
