... in response to Birthday Girl, posted by charles on Jan 10, 2002I saw the trailer for this.
I think it is set to be more sensational than feminist.
Nicole Kidman has a hidden past -- relatives who come over and extort the husband for cash. Dunno all of the subtext. All and all, a story that Claire or her followers probably could have written.
But I think that the fact Nicole Kidman is the Russian Bride, she'll be portrayed as sympathetic.
And, at least they picked someone who is ALMOST as good looking as most of the RW who come over ;-)
Bottom line though... whenever Hollywood gets involved, it's gonna be bad...
