Who would have thought that Paul Verhoeven would make his best film so late in life! He is 83 years old today. He was 80 years old when he started making this film which was pushed back because of personal health problems and Covid.
This is an incredibly beautiful film about women who try to break free within the constraints of their times. It is a celebration of humanity, sexuality, creativity and life. Verhoeven approaches his subject with so much love - so much compassion for humanity - that one is left with the feeling of having experienced something sacred. Not the sacredness of the church or the presence of God but the sanctity of life and human nature.
A masterpiece which I look forward to revisiting. 2 years 5 months ago -
