I knew that this was a tough fight, but I really never did know just how bad it was until I saw that movie. And it certainly made me take my duty to vote even more seriously... And I agree that everybody needs to see it. It was a very powerful reminder... :hi:

5. Yes, when it first came out.. Was great.. Its one reason I don't take
for granted one single vote... we didn't always have equal rights.. and still have a way to go.. especially with the onslaught of govt coming after us with all the abortion bills etc.

9. It's almost as if it should be required that all women see this movie + If These Walls Could Talk.
It's so important to never go back - and with these crazies in office, we easily could.

6. Another great role done by Hillary Swank
I never liked her at first but then again I saw her as "That girl played one of Steve's girlfriends on Beverly Hills 90210"

She really worked her ass off to overcome that part

7. Yes
and reminds me just how vigilant we all must be because the rights and freedoms we take for granted today, could be lost with the stroke of a pen.
