1. I totally disagree with MHP on this one.

I listened to her the first time she reviewed the film and she made me furious,
and her second attempt to bash the film only made me more mad.

I think she needs to watch the whole film again and look at it 'as a person' and not a professor'.

From MHP's comments in the 'first' review I came to the conclusion that MHP apparently missed the parts where minimum wage & social security were mentioned, historical events where shown within the film, and the growth of the domestic workers took place.

MHP has a huge hang up about the issue of 'rape' not being addressed in the film, 'rape' was NOT an issue that needed to be addressed in this particular film.

If MHP wants to watch a film about the issue of rape then I would suggest she write a book on the issue and then find someone to make it into a film for her.

p.s. I am thrilled that Octavia won the Oscar for supporting actress,
but I was was rooting for BOTH Viola Davis and Meryl Streep to win for best lead actress - I thought they were BOTH great.
