Rebel with a cause

Just treated myself to a matinee of the thoroughly enjoyable "Isn't it Romantic?".

.It's a witty script and a great homage to rom coms that have saturated the cinema. But unlike most of them, this script was smart and clever, and when it was predictable, you were in on the joke.  It's not contrived if you're part of it.

 It's like the best scribes from "Sex and the City" decided to make their characters less sex-starved and pathetic. 

 The cinematography glowed like this mini review, and that's always a nice treat for the eyes.

And while we're on the subject of a nice treat for the eyes, where were those adorable plus-sized heroines in my formative years?  Maybe my twenties would have attracted less hideous sociopaths if I were a little bit more of a Rebel.

We need role models like her, assuring women that they can be judged by the content of their character and not by the contents  of their undergarments.

Unless they carry an ugly  twenty dollar handbag..then by all means, judge away
