Reviews
There are women in the film, but none has anything you could call a personality.
A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties. It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.
