A Lente do Desejo

This movie was thought provoking in a sense because it shows how men separate the women that they love from the women they see in girlie magazines! In this flick the women needed to affirm their physical beauty by going to a girlie magazine photographer! Where are the husbands and the fathers? It also makes this decision to pose seem self-centered (not that the characters were self-centered; they were well acted). The women that make an emotionally charged decision to pose rarely think about the loved ones that they will hurt once the pictures are made public! It also serves to turn an otherwise complex, multi-faceted character into an object!This movie also should warn all the husbands and fathers out there to not neglect their wives and daughters; so that they won't resort to drastic measures to feel attractive!

Lynda Carter proves to be a better actress than people conceive her as in her portrayal of a Wife and Mother that poses for Playboy. Another great character is the "slutty" twin sister played by Josie Bissett of Melrose Place. Josie's acting in this movie is much better than in the cheesy Melrose.

Overall, this movie is credible, but might be a disappointment for people who want to see skin.

The people on here who think they have "skillz" have none. Please laugh at those people with me, won't you.

This movie is about mother nature and capitalism. Mostly mother nature though. Women want to feel attractive to themselves and even more so to men. SHOCKER! This drive that women have is a result of 5 million years of evolution. Men also have an analogous drive to be attractive to women. But women don't find naked men sexy, they find money and power sexy. Which is why nobody ever asked Hugh Hefner to pose naked. Most people are bothered by these realities. They want to see conspiracies for why the world is the way it is. Guess what, no conspiracy required. Men and women are both insecure, weak, paranoid, frightened animals. This mild mental illness that infects all people and has since humans climbed down out of trees millions of years ago is responsible for our bizarre and often-times self-destructive behavior.

This is the story of 3 imperfect intelligent women who were blessed with good genetics and cursed with everything else that infects the human mind and soul. Educational and entertaining? Mildly. Worthwhile? Sure. A story deserving to be told ? As much as any other on the Oxygen network.
