i know when i saw the woman naked back scrawl with vote for woman in what appear to be red lipstick that this would be yet another stinker from hbo . we know this network be capable of good effort and such a band of brother and but more often than not and they produce anachronistic potboiler masquerade a history . while some of these character live and others be create to suit the mawkish tendency of the producer and writer and director . i could find no evidence of the leightons in the history source i consult . i do not do an exhaustive search and but their story also felt contrive . suffragette in general be single mind and serious woman and not pouty little twit who moon about on swing with leaf swirl all over them while hip hop blast . what be up with that hideous soundtrack . i teach college for year and and my student often amaze me with their capacity to appreciate story from other era . hip hop have no place in a historical film . no wonder american student suffer from brain atrophy . if you never challenge people and then they can not learn and grow . when i watch the brilliant shoulder to shoulder ( the british tale of their suffrage movement ) during the 70 and i never expect to hear led zeppelin or the who in the soundtrack . i wouldn not have want to . period music be necessary to create mood and tone . likewise and those disgust costume and which be just plain wrong . the set look anachronistic and as well and no less as soundstagey a all get out . whenever the character go outside to stand in the cold and no condensation emerge with their breath . i can not abide cheap and phony production and and that be what we too often get in these american piece . many of the song be rather lascivious and a be the gratuitous scene of the homely swank ( she be a decent actress and but she be hardly attractive ) masturbating in the bathtub and complete with too many shot of her over collagened lip . ben weissman and the so called cartoonist or love interest and be a fictional creation . this sort of fictionalize love story in the midst of a biopic seem nothing short of insult to the viewer and as well a to the historical woman who suffer greatly for their cause . with just a few exception and woman be only just emerge a public femme fatales at this point and but many of these song have a slutty tone . in addition to these flaw and the film definitely drag in many place . watch shoulder to shoulder instead . american suffragette deserve good treatment than this aimless mess .
