Check out the movie Mona Lisa Smile with Julia Roberts. Biggest piece of trash to hit the video screen in years. Plot is well-written, but fanatical feminism is the theme. Also, although the movie is named Mona Lisa Smile and the end of the movie shows a class reviewing the painting Mona Lisa, Leonardo Da Vinci is not mentioned in the entire move nor any of the great works of the masters. Jackson Pollock (an alcoholic) and his wretched paint splatter style is the main contemporary artist presented.

I am sick and tired of people substituting garbage for good, wickedness for wisdom and knowledge for, basically, nothing. Leadership. When are we going to get leadership?

Are you kidding? I wouldn't waste my time or my money watching anything with Julia Roberts in it.

The movie bombed at the box office, thank God...

My very intelligent and equally funny wife does a pretty good rendition of the promo for that movie- particularly the clip wherein one of the students asks julia's character why she isn't married.
