On the basis of sex Film Review

I went to the movies last might and saw the  movie on the basis of sex.

It was a highly enjoyable movie. Read the link to see all about the movie but in essence it is about Ruth Bader Ginsberg at University ( mainly Harvard but not only Harvard law school) and then working in a very sexist world. She is quite bright no very bright the brightest of the brightest but this does not matter. When she studies law she is a mother and covers lectures for her sick husband ( who it must be said is a very supportive husband.

She eventually makes it to the court of appeals ( one of the advisors to the film was actually one of the judges she presented to). She wins not just one but quite a few cases in which laws actively supported sex discrimination.

Okay sometimes it writing was too long on one subject.I also doubt the young Mrs Bader Ginsburg was as attractive as the actress however overall the film was a beauty.
