Writing a film review is to record the following two most memorable episodes. The film more directly expounds the views on women's growth and women's rights than the original.
Fragment one:
Joe: I hate when people speculate about Rory and Meg as if they were characters in a play.
Mom: There's nothing more speculative than seeing a woman having fun.
Meg: How come Rory can flirt and champagne and no one takes him lightly?
Mom: I think there's a practical reason Rory is a man, like he can vote, own property and pursue a career he loves, so he's not easily demeaned.
Joe: Why care what they think.
Meg: I care. It's nice to be enviable, I can't help but love it.
Mom: Not so. I only care what you think of yourself, if you think your worth is only as an ornament, I am afraid one day you will believe that you are really just like that. Time corrodes all superficial beauty, what time cannot destroy is the beautiful workings of your heart, your humor, your kindness, and your moral courage, these are the things I hold dear in your heart. I hope to give my daughter a fairer world and I know you guys will make it a better place.

Fragment two:
A man: If women are moral forces, shouldn't they have the right to govern, preach, and testify in court?
Joe: That's bad logic, because women are kind, women should be able to vote. Men do not vote because they are kind, but because they are male. Women should vote, not because they are angels and men are animals, but because we are the people of this country.
A certain man: You should be a lawyer.
Joe: I have a lot to do.
