9/10
The most feminist movie I've ever seen is also notoriously one of the most difficult to endure. A 3 1/2 hour movie in which very little happens except the day-to-day monotonies of its title character. This was a movie I was born to like, and after reading about it for so long, it was nice to sit down and watch it and have it be exactly what I knew it would be. I don't feel like I watched a movie so much as I lived with Jeanne for 3 1/2 hours.
