Une femme libérée

This miniseries bought a change in my life. I grabbed for the book, which is even more involved and recognized the life I had chosen at the age of 20. I recognized so many women I knew and my stand out performer is Colleen Dewhurst. Lee is perfect in the lead and Patty Duke is just brilliant as the woman who totally loses everything. I would love to get my hands on a copy of the DVD. I had my daughters' read the novel, which they totally got.

For anyone who was raised in the 40's to the 60's it will bring back memories good and bad. There is a thread of too much feminism but this can be overlooked for what the story is really telling us about a moth meta morphing into a butterfly.

In the book the main character decides she and her grad school friends are definitely gay--but given that era--the book makes then closeted and sort of indirect about their sex lives,. On the TV version she finds love with a guy instead of women.

This movie was shown last week on Irish tv.The acting and script were outstanding.It was obviously written straight from the heart.Lee Remick wouldn't have known how to give a bad performance,but in this she really excels.As a male I found the film to be in no way man hating.Take no notice of the first reviewer. The romantic teaming of Colleen Dewhurst and Dynasty's Al Corley was certainly bizarre.He looked more like her grandson!!.I hope more people get to see this film.

If your idea of a good time is to watch a movie about a group of women p***ing and moaning about men, this is your film. One of their complaints is that men simply cannot aim properly in the bathroom.

I LOVE THIS MOVIE. I watch it every time I see that it's going to be on. I cannot fully explain it. Sure its a hackneyed plot done in that late 70's cheesy made-for-tv fashion but-dare I say it- that only adds to its allure for me. Something in its predictability and familiarity is reassuring. Go figure. I think that it all boils down to the fact that it is your basic LIFETIME KIND OF CHICK FLICK. Not to mention that Lee and Colleen are just fantastic.
