Mrs. America

The writing, the acting, the cinematography, the soundtrack, the costumes...... all are of such incredible quality that it was hard not to binge watch the whole series in one go. I had to limit myself to 2 episodes per viewing so I could fully appreciate the context, the storylines, the historical unfolding of two very real and very opposed ideologies that run so deep in America.

Absolutely fantastic viewing.

Impeccable cinematography, unbelievably talented cast.

Characters full of charm that captivate you, even if their beliefs may annoy you, disturb you, insult you or disgust you. This show is a cradle for experiencing how to empathize with all kinds of people. Not simply fun or entertaining, even though it certainly is due to the aforementioned reasons, but this show is like experiencing personal, political reinvention.

Can one's character be separate from their true or false beliefs? Have you seen how might beliefs collapse and shatter and turn into a different kind, all in one person's mind? And most importantly, how do you feel about feminism? How do you feel about the political subjugation of women? The answers to these questions will be find if you give this show a chance.

This show deserves a 10 star rating because it was essential for me and I believe it is essential for all. Highly recommended. Congratulations to the creators and cast!

I always want to like Cate Blanchett. She's an amazing actress that chooses strong rolls. This is no different, except that I disagree with everything this character stands for. She is strong and straightforward and stands out in her time, in ALL THE WAYS I DISAGREE WITH. That being said it is amazing, stunning, unprecedented acting. She is THE BEST front runner for intelligence and ignorance at the same time! Maybe ignorance is not correct but blind faith in an outdated and unacceptable view is better said. While I aggressively disagree with her views As a character, the acting is undeniably phenomenal. The rest of the cast is also amazing and emotional, but none of them hold a candle to Blanchett. She true is the force that runs this emotional, controversial program. Agree or disagree (hopefully disagree) politically, it is an amazing piece of work. I hope the dissension is what they planned to evoke and if so... WELL DONE.

Sophisticated look at multiple perspectives on women's rights. Still relevant today.

Very interesting time capsule (and kickass 70's soundtrack) that is more sympathetic to Phyllis Schlafly than I expected.

She was a savvy and determined woman; no matter your politics, the Schlafly family is remarkable and accomplished. Fantastic irony that the feminist movement she loathed was the very vehicle that gave her a voice.

Completely disagree with her politics and beliefs; but, credit where credit is due - she was a fighter and a worthy opponent.
