Reply #3: I saw it recently and agree. But have things changed so much? [View All]

Thank you Mike 03 for your sensitivity and wisdom. But given the attempts by men to control women--on the courts, in the churches, in the legislatures-- in terms of control over their own bodies, equal pay, insurance reimbursement for birth control, and taking domestic abuse seriously... I dare say not that much has changed. As happy as I am to see progress being made in GLBT rights, women's rights lag behind. Most people don't even know that ERA was never ratified (and the implications of that today.


But, yes, CHANGELING was a amazing movie. I too recommend it highly. After finishing it, I must have spent two hours trying to research what happened to this woman (you'll find contradictory information, in terms of when she died, where she spent the remainder of her life, etc.) Good on Clint Eastwood (and Angela Jolie) for a very well done and thought provoking movie.
