kevenquinlan T @RT75276071 Nov 14, 2025 Women's lib true story. Who cares and it was impossibly boring. See more

Ed . @RT01276001 Aug 29, 2025 Most unladylike behavior. Sometimes a feminist’s gotta do what a woman’s gotta do. These beauty pageants were extremely popular entertainment in their day. At one point, the Miss America pageant was the year's highest rated television event. Times change, and now men have the internet as a source for objectifying women. See more

Kyle M @RT77296778 Apr 14, 2025 Directorially intuitive in a complicated stance as this solidly written, surprisingly tense drama shows the argumentative roots without a considerate balance when the performative edge subtly gestures there’s more regarding the issue whilst shown under sympathetic delusion with reverent imagery.

Kip K @RT80547436 Jan 12, 2025 A total waste of a great cast of actors. About halfway through, it goes stupid, stops caring about credibility, and goes for the ridiculous. I found myself saying, WHAT?? Oh yeah, RIGHT, like NO WAY!" more times than I could count. Major disappointment all around. See more

Daniel G @DanielGodoyBsb Feb 21, 2023 Enjoyable depiction of the historic beginning of the British women's lib movement in the 1970s. Though a somewhat light movie, it dealt with respect with other issues, too, like apartheid and racism in general. Not quite clear if the jury really thought the 2 black women were the top candidates or if there was some political aspect to their decision, like there was to send 2 candidates from South Africa to "whitewash" the segregation reality.

isla s @RT89656869 Sep 3, 2022 I thought this was a reasonably well made film based on a true story. I'm a little uncomfortable that its categorised as a comedy - the issue of womens rights and the objectification of young women is hardly a laughing matter and if anything such issues have only got worse in the following decades. I suppose there are some moments where the activists are shown in high spirits, which may cheer you but I wouldn't say any of it is exactly laugh out loud material. I'd heard about the true story before (having seen a documentary about it on the BBC a few years back), so I knew roughly what to expect. I thought both Keira Knightley and Jessie Buckley gave good performances, probably moreso Jessie Buckley, who is someone I really rate for her performances. If your interested in seeing the story played out in all its 1970 era bright colours and naffness, you'll find that here certainly - its a good film to potentially start discussion about feminism maybe and generally I thought it's a good film. Maybe not quite good but decent enough to be worth a watch, yes. Oh and I particularly liked that at the end, we're given details about what happened to the characters via text and shown images of the real people who were involved in real life as well - that always helps with such true life stories. If I was given the choice, I'd prefer to watch the BBC documentary with library footage of the actual event, rather than re-watch this film but it is a fairly rounded film none the less. See more
