I mean, if they wanted to be REALLY true to history the whole movie could have been in Hebrew, I think they were just using a more modern translation of the prayer.

More because Drew Barrymore did a great job as the director.

It has nothing to do with men being better workers over all. You want equal outcome you need to do equal work. Also there is no real proof to support your claim. Are you referring to that old myth that women make less money for the same work? Because that's been debunked a few dozen times already.

Those are plenty good enough for me, if they base their actual bill on them.

It's basically just a continuation of the "nagging wife". We can criticize your clothes, but if you tell us our butt looks big then you are in the doghouse.

That's what the previews seem to be indicating. You know Hollywood can't allow a smidgen of pro-conservative ideas to creep into their work if they can help it.

I loved it. Of course then they started having talking hamsters and other various weird things...nope, that was bad...

You might point out the section that quotes the results of the Beaver Dam Eye Study, which shows just that. Extra exposure over the "normal" amount is what we want to avoid. According the optometrist I work for the real issue is also that the energy occurs in spikes with the bulbs, unlike natural sunlight. This means your pupil is not contracting the way it would in bright sunlight which allows more of the blue light to reach your retina. And yeah, but at least Asbestos wasn't essentially mandated for use.

I haven't seen anyone address this particular issue though.

What was there to like? My mom is very tolerant about stupid movies and she walked out of the theater in the middle of it.
