The Glorias

Great cast. Lovely cinematography. Fresh editing that draws you into the story. Thank you for daring to be different. :)

Superb acting and an interesting story about a fascinating life. It was long but worth making it through to the end. Couldn't be more relevant than it is in this moment. Glad I watched.

That being said, this film was about 30 minutes too long and there were some editing choices that kept it from reaching its potential.

Unfocused but well acted; "The Glorias" pays homage to a feminist icon with a talented cast but the final product is far from being iconic.

In this drama, feminist icon Gloria Steinem recounts her itinerant childhood's influence on her life as a writer, activist and organizer for women's rights worldwide. Based on a true story.

I can appreciate director Julie Taymor's vision (except for that "Wizard Of Oz" sequence, which was a bit much), but "The Glorias" leans more on the messy side rather than being wholly empowering. However the cast is great; Julianne Moore is terrific, Alicia Vikander delivers a solid performance, but Bette Midler is the scene stealer and kicks serious ass in her role. An inspiring and interesting story but overly long and uneven.

An informative and inspirational biopic about the pioneering liberator Gloria Steinem. Uses four actors to innovatively chart her direction, often interacting as one, leaving you under no illusion of her significant and vital impact on the world you live in today, albeit one that still has some way to go to balance the rights of the person you choose to identify as, especially if you're not in the white middle aged man and older cult. Keep biting!
