Mona Lisa Smile - IMDb user comments
If anything, we are more drawn to the strength of the relationships of the students to each other yep rather than the instructor. Where 'Poets' drew Robin Williams character deep into the lives of his students, Watson's student relationship is manufactured at best, strained and intrusive at worst.
The film deserves unexpected credit for not casting itself as a unilateral message of contemporary feminism. It allows Watson, as the enlightened teacher, to offer her message of women's potential in non-traditional roles, yet also allows one of her students to assert the right to choose that traditional role without condescension. y good ~
