¿Alguna vez te has maravillado?
Basada en la vida del Dr. William Marston, psicólogo y teórico de Harvard, quien ayudó a crear el detector de mentiras y el famoso personaje ficticio de la Mujer Maravilla. Esta película muestra parte de la relación poco convencional que compartió con dos mujeres: su esposa Elizabeth, y Olive Byrne, una alumna de William que invita a la pareja a una hermandad femenina, en donde exploran y comparten ideas sobre sexualidad y sumisión. A partir de este evento, William, Elizabeth y Olive forman un triángulo tanto amoroso como intelectual: la química entre los tres fue la clave para crear a la famosa heroína y dotarla de sus propios ideales feministas. Luchando contra aquellos que intentaron censurar la historieta por considerarla violenta y llena de perversión, el trío defendió firmemente la presencia de un personaje femenino que sirviera de inspiración para las mujeres de todo el mundo.

I knew the story of Professor Marston before I saw the movie and I have to say that the real version is much more interesting than the Hollywoodized version. But it's not a bad movie or a waste of time. Due to the nature of the story, it has a rather small target audience. I think a lot of people might have expected a more heroic story. Possibly after watching the Wonder Woman movie itself. I think Marston was a hero in his own right, far ahead in his views on society and women. And he put his views into the comic which, naturally, was a no-go at the time. I really enjoyed the movie which clearly lives from its lead actors. At the same time I like the production in general. And even if we are, as a society, more tolerant than in the 30s and 40s, this movie is a reminder that there still is a lot of prejudice against people outside the so-called mainstream. We may have evolved but we still have a long way ahead.
Ok, let's go down a few notches and forget this is supposed to be an historically accurate depiction movie of someone's life. Done? Great. 9/10. Can't forget? 4/10.
Despite Moulton's granddaughter's claims that this film is inaccurate in its portrayal of relationships (which is undoubtedly going to happen unless the film is made from a journal), I would like to point out what the film gives to its audience. Not only does it portray a hero in an early comic industry, but also in feminism and psychology. To think that there were people in the early 1900s that held women and their desires in high regard is astounding. As a brief window into history that this film gives, I needed to rate it highly. To me, it shows more effort into the world of sexuality (polyamory) and feminism than many other movies may give you, and I would like to give kudos to the writers who have supplied a good story-line even if they might not have had a lot to go on. The acting in the movie was great, and I agree with another comment stating that the script was sub-par. Aside from that, it was a pretty good movie. Thanks to those involved.
Suffering Sappho! If there were ever a movie I _wanted_ to be good, (though, realistically, I want almost every movie to be good) it would probably have been this one. Believe me, I was pretty hyped for this film. Actually, my initial reaction to the trailer for this movie was an awesome (in the literal, Biblical sense) headdesk, crashing to the table below, as I bellowed my indignation that _I_ could not have been involved in the making of this movie myself! Is that a little grandiose? Sure, but so am I, so bear with me. Unfortunately, the reality of this movie turns out to be a little bit of a patchy mess. It is uninspired in its aesthetic (not terribly surprising from the director of infamous Disney reboot "Herbie Fully Loaded," lesbian B movie "D.E.B.S.", and several episodes of "The L Word"), the pacing is erratic and jumbled at times, and the writing flies in the face of historical accuracy and vernacular speech. Where the movie deserves praise, although sometimes at the expense of its worldbuilding mise en scene, is in the casting and performances of the three principals, Evans, Hall, and Heathcote (in credits order, though not truly in order of importance or merit). Here, each had moments of true brilliance, as the triad stood alone (sometimes too alone, to the detriment of the too-flimsy film world around them) against a sea of angry, very red, very white faces. I never felt disengaged from the characters, and they were written flawlessly. Where these figures deviate from history (which, I hear, is at many points) I will allow poetic license, because they are painted so vividly and with such charming life. Even when the script is bad, the actors presented it well. Just as even when the script called for the location to be set in New York state, it still looked like Massachusetts. This movie was truly robbed. With a better cinematographer, two more really good rewrites, and maybe some more specific focus, this movie could have been a serious awards contender, and a very great piece of art. As it is, it's been a blip through the cinemas, to be misunderstood and forgotten until such time as polyamory is more accepted in the social mores of the day, and it can be further misunderstood and miscategorized as evidence of how backward society was in 2017, that this was our take on the Marston/Moulton story. Of course, by that time, there will be a better "Wonder Women" movie. There had damn well better be.
It was good to know that your favourite female superhero was born from bondage and threesome. Thank you Angela Robinson.Now i see wonder woman with a different perspective.I was expecting this from her cuz' of her costume.
