One for the Women of History

The Duchess 

PG-13, 2008

     This movie wasn't the most interesting movie I have ever seen, but it was very well done and worth the time to watch. The acting, costumes, story line and everything was great. I just felt trapped with the main character and wish there would have been some way to live happily then. I think that was one of the points of the movie, to show how women used to be treated. I highly recommend this movie to any who like historical dramas and women's issues in society. 

I wouldn't suggest this movie for anyone less than the age of 15, due to the mild sex scene between the Duchess and her out-of-wedlock lover. I don't consider this movie for immature audiences, due to the lack of interest I believe they would have for it.

One for Adults

Dangerous Beauty

R,1998

     I loved this movie. Great for romantics, though one has to keep an open mind concerning societal values. Love condemns and conquers. A story of tragedy and triumph. I recommend for anyone over the age of eighteen, or otherwise old enough to appreciate a movie with adult content.

The Painted Veil

PG13, 2006

     I loved this movie. Great for anyone who understands compromise and doing what one has to do. Sometimes love comes after you're married, and this movie portrays this greatly. I recommend.

I disagree with the rating, though. I think this movie should probably be rated R due to adult content: Norton's buttocks and a few mild sex scenes, to be frank.

The Science of Sex Appeal

TV14, 2009

     I loved this film. I learned a lot and found this documentary very interesting and intriguing. Science at it's best: why marriages last, why marriages fail, why guys can't quite figure girls out - it's all here.

Based on a True Story

All Good Things 

R, 2010

     I don't really know what to say. I need closure and I have my suspicions. This movie angered me a little, saddened me a little, and even scared me a little, but I was interested until the end.
