Review of Professor Marston and the Wonder Women (2017) by Outi I — 13 Apr 2018
What the hell did I just watch?
First, what's with the accents? He was American, and his wife was raised in Boston, but yet, somehow the writer and director decided why not have two BRITISH ACTORS playing those parts, despite Luke trying to hide his accent we clearly hear both with British accents. No one that arrives in the US at 5 years old keeps their accent. And the Olive character is AUSTRALIAN? Are they running out of AMERICAN actors to play parts anymore?? Why are so many parts that are AMERICAN played by foreigners?
And let's forget that they (school girls) are supposed to be playing 19-22, but they all look over 30. Did reality just slip away? Olive was around 18 in the movie, but the actor is 30. What? They don't at all.
I don't believe the dialogue written. Doesn't ring true. It was written for a late 1920/30s story with a 2017 third wave feminist perspective. More SJW gibberish. There was no reason for it.
Knowing who the writer and director is it makes sense. Lesbian writer and director making a film about lesbians and feminism.
It was so painful to watch.
