Am I Missing Something?

Go in cold, and you're likely to emerge with your blood boiling. This has to be seen to be believed.

Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

Very fun and entertaining movie with some of the best female stars of that era to make one of the very first chick flicks. As a man I personally couldn't keep my attention through this 2 hour long movie but can understand how some could. The one thing I liked about this film was how each of the characters had their own unique personality that clashed to make for very funny scenes. This film is also unique itself by having an only female cast which was very strange for this time period.

I loved seeing an all female cast where men were talked about but never seen. I found that very clever. That also could be symbolic of the fact that men (for these women) are always on the minds of women or at the center of women's existence whether they are physically present or not. I do wish that the topic or theme of the film was not about marriage or men. But as a topic the film did bring up interesting points. Like wether or not to stay with a man if he cheats. It's interesting though that in either case, whether the woman stays in the relationship or leaves, its seen as her fault (in the film). It's her fault he cheated because she wasn't enough and it's her fault for getting a divorce when she could just stay in the relationship. Besides that point I don't see what else the film was trying to say. Again, I love the female cast but the topic of the film was so bland to me that I couldn't bring myself to really enjoy it. Side-note: it was weird that the fashion show scene was in color but the rest of the film was in black and white.

this film(if you can call it that) is by far the most boring thing if watched, and I once watched paint dry! I know everyone has their own opinion and... art is subjective. this is the kind of thing you can find on one of those channels that pander exclusively to middle age women. to put it plainly this is a bitch film. a bunch of women nagging each other to death, usually over some man. if you watch LMN than this is you classic movie. but, if you prefer a conflict that doesn't revolve around trivial matters of the heart that are as complex as a straight line of yarn, then avoid this one at all costs. oh, I just know someone is gonna get peeved of with this review. despite it being a review.

It's a movie about women but not about woman's rights. The whole movie is made with black and white color but except the fashion show. I think there is no need for that only making the fashion show part with color. This colorful show doesn't have any specific meaning for this movie. It attracts my attention only because it is colorful. I think light setting in this movie is perfect! A lot of high lights directly polish the actress's face. Also these lights help to show the difference between different characters. Mary always looks nice and kind because the setting of lights for Mary is from her back. But Sylvia is the contrast of Mary, so light setting for her is sharp and harmful. And the clothes shows the subconscious for characters. Mary always wears skirts and home-style dress to imply that she likes her family and wants her husband back to her.
