[quote=Anonymous]Does anyone think there's something funny about how a supposedly "empowering" movie about a wealthy, in control woman still has the plotline of her being subjugated to a man? I know that wasn't the intention and it's told through the lens of BDSM which I guess makes it edgier but still, it reminds me of something like "Taming of the Shrew." The message is "all women, no matter how powerful, want to be under the control of a man." I would be much more interested in this film if the power dynamic was flipped, and Nicole was the one in control. Sort of like the book "The idea of You", how the woman in that age gap relationship is GENUINELY in control and for that reason it seemed transgressive (the book only, not the movie, I haven't seen that). This just seems to me like rinse and repeat of the same gender roles we're always fed by Hollywood[/quote]
