Visit external web page. Rated NR; 133min; Director:George Cukor (1939). If The Women hadn't been released in the same year as Gone with the Wind and The Wizard of Oz, this would be a better known classic. Claire Boothe Luce wrote the scathing play with only female characters, and that includes the animals. Can't beat the cast, either, with Norma Shearer, Joan Crawford and Rosalind Russell. Forget that trite Meg Ryan vehicle, this is a classic that shouldn't be missed, especially when mimosas are on hand.
