"Citizen Ruth" is on Showtime now. A great film about extremism
and the abortion issue.
Anyone else like this movie?

1. Great film..
Laura Dern was perfect in it, and it (deservedly) savaged all sides of the issue. And Red Foreman as a fundie pervert, too!

2. i guess this is an interesting film...
...but i don't think it's a great film! she's an irresponsible glue head! there's nothing heroic about her, she's a mess~
i can't find anything in the film that's admirable.

3. Its a parody on extremism and how the important things/people are
set aside for the appetites of zealots.
Of course she's a mess. She's supposed to be, and not the heroine of the film.
