This is an important story about women and the cost of bucking the system. There is an acknowledgment of the personal struggle. She talks about her feelings toward all of this and how Millicent could have felt after all the struggle. It is compassionate and unflinching. It is honest and hopeful and frustrating.

I really like how we are told Millicent's story along side how the story was uncovered. I appreciated the look inside Hollywood as a woman in Ms. O'Meara's story and the statistics. It makes for a powerful story of success on your own terms and the toll that revolution takes on you.
