It's either sad or interesting or -- something -- when the only man in a movie
is Roger Ebert. Rosanna Arquette, tired of hearing that old aphorism that there
are no good parts for women in Hollywood, takes up a video camera and records
interviews with some three dozen actresses at various ages. (The title invokes
Debra Winger's recent retirement and reclusiveness -- though since this film
she returned to the cinema.)
Many of the comments are incisive -- Holly Hunter, Whoopi Goldberg, and a
surprisinly lucid Martha Plimpton -- but just as many are repetitive, whining,
and obsequious: Remember you're dealing with some of the most famous,
wealthiest people in the country and you'll start rolling your eyes when Sharon
Stone starts droning about her "womanness."
