Professor Marston and the Wonder Women (2017)






Directed by: Angela Robinson

Written by: Angela Robinson

Starring: Luke Evans, Rebecca Hall, & Bella Heathcote







With this film, you get to see how the Justice League hero came to be.

Professor Marston (Evans) is married and teaches at Harvard about the DISC theory: Dominance, Inducement, Submission, and Compliance.  Unfortunately, nobody cares.  Meanwhile, his wife Elizabeth (Hall) is frustrated that she does not earn the credit and reputation for what she's accomplished simply because she's a woman.  Considering their new project, the lie detector, they decide to hire an intern/assistant that can help them test the theory and their invention.  But both fall in love with her.

Did I even talk about Wonder Woman?

Basically the film is just discussing how Marston's relationship with Elizabeth and Olive compile into one woman: Wonder Woman.  Through their unconventional relationship, their careers fall, but it does raise the question: Can you have two soul mates?  Can you be in love with more than one person?

I love these types of movies and although the trailer makes it seem that this film will be boring, I can assure you it isn't.  It is a little unorthodox in terms of subject matter, i.e. porn, but still it's a beautiful film that should be watched by everyone whom is closed minded, or if you like philosophy or Wonder Woman.

5 popcorns.
