COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Uplifting submitted by ferielp on July 19, 2017, 11:35am This movie is inspirational in the same way that Erin Brokovich was. It made me feel like as an ordinary person in any ordinary situation, with hard work and ferocity of spirit even I could overthrow a corrupt corporation. The overt misogyny she had to face in that time period is jarring now, but we can all recognize how insidious it's become today, and how it continues to tell women they have no voice.
