The Women (1939)

Plot: A rumor gets out among a group of women that Mary's (?) husband is cheating on her. She loves him very much and is very torn up about what to do, but eventually instead of listening to her mother leaves and divorces him while she still loves him. (SPOILER) Eventually they get back together because the woman he cheated on her with (and married!!) turned out to do it only for his money. So, all in all, women love assholes, the men cheat on them, then the men want them back and they're just waiting around for them to be scooped back up because they love them so very much and that's what real love is. Aha...

Aga's Opinion: Oh my there was a LOT of screaming and screeching and giggling and very fast talking and high pitched voices in that movie. But that added to its black and white feel. I don't know if it was sexist or feminist but probably it was a real treat at the time to see such a female-lead movie and now the attitudes are just no longer relatable. What's incredible about it is there is not a single male role in the whole movie -- not a single man shows up! though they are mostly the centrepiece of any discussion. Hilarious last line (they really had a thing for last lines back then didn't they) "But what about your pride?" "Pride is a luxury a woman in love simply cannot afford!" *runs into arms of a cheating husband* hahahaha noice It does get pretty silly and funny at moments but I would say it's something to watch at a slumber-party more than for a sit down and big movie watching. So it's up to you really.
