Movie Review - On the Basis of Sex
I'm a little overwhelmed by this absolutely breathtaking movie, and I don't normally go for the historical dramas. Viewing On The Basis Of Sex I smiled, I cried, I cheered, and was honestly surprised at how great an experience this was. I'm shocked it's still in limited release at this point. I expect it will go wide soon enough.
No lie here: the entire audience was rapt. I was happy to see such a wonderful moment in history illustrated so beautifully. On The Basis Of Sex reminded me of of Apollo 13, one of my all-time favorite movies. It's the kind of tale you'd think Hollywood made up, because we're not normally allowed to have nice things in real life. :-)
There are no special effects or amazing scenery/costumery, so you can certainly wait for this to come out on streaming options -- but hey: it's worth paying for, if you're lucky enough to have it come out in your area. My theater was sold out the first night, and then was packed the next morning as early as 10:30 AM.
I can't put enough pluses on this A+ film. Trust: awards will be won.
Grade: A+
About The Peetimes: I have 3 Peetimes up right now and might have a 4th later. From the 3 available, all are fine. Try to use the 1st one proactively if you can. The 3rd sets up the emotional atmosphere for the climax, so absolutely use it if you have to, so you won't miss the intense scenes that follow.
There are no extra scenes during, or after, the end credits of On the Basis of Sex. (What we mean by Anything Extra.)
