Iron Jawed Angels

IMHO, an important work that we would all benefit from watching. I just learned that approximately 20 MILLION single American women did NOT vote in the last presidential election!

This film serves as a reminder that our liberties are so very hard-won, that it takes a combined effort and a deep commitment, and that often the person who begins a battle (Susan B. Anthony) is not the one who sees it through to victory. I didn't give it 5 stars because I didn't think that Hilary Swank ever really connected to the character. She always seemd to be toying with the ideas, but sadly, didn't come across as "completely in character".

The rest of the cast are positively glowing in their superb portrayals of a diverse group who banded together for a common cause. One to watch and learn from. Periodicity was well done, too.

every woman that is undecided about voting or not really needs to see this. If she is only thinking that her vote does not matter that much so why bother, well... look at this and see what these women did just to get you your vote... then look ashamed! I was very pleased in how fast this order arrived and in great condition.

Purchase was easy, quick, and reliable from this vendor. This movie is especially timely because it outlines the struggle of women to win their right to vote. Everybody--go out and vote in November--no matter what your politics.

I was never really aware of how much the women of the suffrage movement had to endure to get the constitution amended until I watched "Iron Jawed Angels". We still live in a masculine world where men call the shots on everything, but in the 1900's it was even harder for women to stand up to men. These women did not let that hold them back, and I salute them for their bravery. I loved Hillary Swank as "Alice Paul". All the other actresses, Frances O'Conner, Julia Ormond, and Angelica Houston were magnificant. I would encourage every women who has forgotten that the right to vote came with much sacrifice to watch "Iron Jawed Angels". This movie will make you proud to be a women, and I hope it will make women want to fight even harder for the rights of women worldwide.

I showed this film about the women's suffrage movement to my government class. My students learned about the suffering women went through to get the right to fight. They were deeply touched.
