Message: [QUOTE="nelsonmuntz, post: 5329688, member: 833"] [B]Professor Marston and the Wonder Women (2017 - Amazon Prime) [/B]- was a surprisingly good movie. Being honest, I started watching the movie because I read a review about the s*x scenes, but it turned out to be an interesting biopic about three unique people. Marston was a professor at Harvard in the 1920's, and his wife Elizabeth was also an academic. They end up adding an Olive Byrne to their throuple, and between them they invent the lie detector, create the Wonder Woman comic, and become the forefathers of modern organizational behavior theory, in addition to writing several research papers over the years. The movie ties together a really odd collection of skills and adventures among the three of them to tell a coherent story, and does a good job portraying the personal challenges that a nonconventional relationship like theirs would have in the middle of the 20th century. The cast was OK. Bella Heathcote was probably the best of the group as Olive Byrne. Luke Evans is not bad, not great, as Professor Marston. I just do not like Rebecca Hall, and thought she was weak as Elizabeth Marston. I thought the growth of Hall's character was actually confusing at times because her reactions to events in their lives were all over the place. The real Elizabeth Marston must have come to grips with her life and lifestyle at some point, but Hall played the character as if every time they were inevitably outed was a giant shock. Connie Britton and Oliver Platt have small roles. [/QUOTE]
