It is so trendy to knock Julia Roberts these days. Sure she made some bad flick choices recently, but who hasn't. This film could have been a little softer in it's description of life in the 50's, but a lot of people I know have very little understanding of this era so a more simple depiction may be appropriate. The film should be recognized for a return to ensemble formats which Hollywood has lost contact with as compared to European movies. Also the refering to this as a chick flick is very narrowminded. At least half the audience when I saw this were males , that I presume have a comfortable position with there sexuality. By the way I think Julia is a very beautiful women.
