When it's comes to money, everyone knows what sells. You think that this is a movie to showcase an empowered women, but do not question why now? That again is a simple money making policy. Using women to make more money for men. They do not care about women. Like when they funded the feminist moment to make sure more women are in work force. People where shocked to find out that this was just so that more people can pay taxes. Previously they were able to tax only one person in family, now two. Brilliant, Yes. For Women's liberation, No. Enjoy.
When I saw the thumbnail, I was just about to continue to scroll past but then I saw Alicia Vikander’s name and I immediately clicked on the trailer to watch. Alicia is such an amazing actress and I can’t wait to see how she does in this film!
Ok this movie looks really good but I’m getting tired of every single trailer that wants to be emotional yet also uplifting and inspiring using the same “Rise Up” song
I was JUST scrolling down to the comments to say exactly this lol. I'm so tired of this song, it feels like studios don't want to have to buy a different one so the trailer houses only have like one song per genre.
Rodoulaxch I’m not sure what you mean by this? I’m not talking about the movies soundtrack just this specific song in the trailer. This song probably isn’t even in the movie, they just used it in the trailer, which is my whole point. They keep re-using the same song for every trailer when it’s not in the movie, they just want to be lazy and use the same song to show the movie will be ~emotional but uplifting~
@@OK-hi5ym Yes, I know and I agree. Trailers aren't actually edited or made by the filmmakers or even the production staff (most of the time); they usually get sent to a "Trailer House" with some general descriptions like "Comedy with an uplifting ending". The trailer houses have to use specific assets that the studio provides, and that includes the video effects, text, AND the music for the trailer. Movie soundtracks are often not completed until well after the time when advertising begins, so it makes sense they wouldn't use something directly from the score (major franchises such as Batman, Star Wars, etc are kind of an exception, but even they usually pull music from previous films and maybe tweak it). I was saying that the studios are too cheap to buy another "inspirational true story" song as an asset for their trailer so its the only one trailer houses can use for a movie like this.
The liberation of women is not over, the fight keeps on going. I can't wait to see this movie, it looks very respectful of such an amazing woman, her work and all the good she has done for women.

I hate how the thumbnail of this video is a girl in a playboy bunny suit. Being a woman is that literally that depressing. They even have to sexually objectify women to sell a movie about women empowerment to women.
You mean women insist on objectifying themselves even to sell themselves as feminists..... women made this movie so “they” are women responsible for this.
Cant wait to see the movie. It sucks that to this day we’re going backwards. Arkansas has a law were u have to ask the father for permission for an abortion. There is also the “if a women accidentally miscarries she could go to jail”
Love Alicia Vikander, she's a fantastic actress but a puzzling choice of casting to play Gloria Steinem. Not to mention the contrast, physically wise, to older Gloria (Julianne Moore) is too drastic imo.
@@AmitZinmanVideo No, Gloria Steinem was legitimately a CIA agent. She's spoken about it on camera although the videos not widely known or talked about.
@@AmitZinmanVideo A stretch huh? Let's do a too long for a YT comment examination of her involvement with the CIA. Maybe read it but I know you wont. Before I start on Ms. Steinem I should offer a quick background on the reason we know much of what we know about the CIA's role in American media through the 60's and 70's. In 1975 the U.S. Senate convened the Church Committee to investigate intelligence community abuses, including but not limited to the CIA. One of the most alarming revelations of the investigation was Project Mockingbird, a widespread CIA program paying journalists and authors to publish information that came directly from Langley, VA. In 1967 Rampart Magazine did a story on a CIA cut out called the Independent Research Service. Steinem was forced to address the reason she was the director of this CIA front organization so she granted interviews to The NY Times and The Washington Post, both of which were exposed as complict in Project Mockingbird. In both softball interviews she claims to have taken the initiative in contacting Cord Meyers, who headed the CIA’s International Organization Division and its prized Operation Mockingbird. So according to Steinem the propaganda campaign didn't seek her out, she approached them. It seems out of character for a liberal feminist to be approaching the CIA so that she can push their propaganda, until one studies Steinems character and not her words. Despite her so-called liberal feminist credentials, Steinem has had a clear preference for very conservative men, often with CIA and/or FBI links. She had a nine-year relationship with Stanley Pottinger, a Nixon Ford assistant attorney general, who played a prominent role in undermining civil rights enforcement under both administrations. He also obstructed FBI investigations into the assassinations of Martin Luther King, and the ex-Chilean Foreign Minister Orlando Letelier. In 1984 Pottinger was investigated for participating in the Iran contra scandal, a CIA scheme to illegally smuggle arms to Iran. In the 1980’s, Steinem dated Henry Kissinger. Yes, Gloria Steinem- feminist icon -dated Henry Kissinger. Concerns were again raised in 1975 when the feminist magazine Off Our Backs ran a story with their discovery of Steinem’s earlier CIA employment. The article raised a host of concerns about her sudden installation- mainly by corporate media -as the official leader of the US women’s movement without any previous involvement in feminist groups or campaigns. During this 1975 scrutiny two prominent NOW members- Carol Hanisch and Kathie Sarachild -openly accused Steinem of working for the CIA and “directing the movement toward moderation and capitulation.” Ultimately NOW director Friedan became concerned “a paralysis of leadership” in the movement “could be due to the CIA” and demanded that Steinem respond. After three months, Steinem wrote a six-page letter to various feminist publications describing her work on two student festivals in 1959 and 1962 that were funded by the CIA. Aiming to deflect the charge she was or had been a government operative, it stated, “I naively thought then that the ultimate money source didn’t matter since, in my own experience, no control or orders came with it.” We now know this comment to be disingenuous as her direct role with the CIA officially ended in 1969 when she left the Independent Research Service. Although it was later discovered that she was on the CIA's payroll through 1975, at least. The Off Our Backs article also raises questions about a parallel organization Steinem started in competition with NOW. Starting parallel groups is a common strategy employed by US intelligence to sabotage grassroots organizationsin. Steinem's contrived counter organization was called Women’s Action Alliance. It engaged mainly in information gathering. It had a $20,000 grant from Rockefeller Family Fund for the establishment of a “national clearinghouse information and referral service” on the women’s movement. WAA collected information on key women leaders and their groups and activities, presumably facilitation FBI/CIA efforts to monitor them. In the late seventies and early seventies, African American organizers became concerned about a pattern in which agents posing as black feminists infiltrated their community groups in an effort to split off women members into separate organizations. This was traced back to a phenomenon in 1978 when Steinem put a book called Black Macho and the Myth of the Superwoman on the cover of Ms. Magazine which she was editing at the time. The book was allegedly “written,” by a Black “feminist” and “activist” named Michele Wallace. Like Steinem, Wallace came out nowhere in her early 20's and was proclaimed the “leader” of Black feminism. In the book, Wallace called abolitionists like Harriet Tubman and Sojourner Truth “ugly” and “stupid” for supporting Black men. She called Black Revolutionaries “chauvinist macho pigs” and advised Black women to “go it alone.” Gloria Steinem maintained that Wallace’s book would “define the future of Black relationships” and she pushed hard to make sure the book received massive publicity. Gloria Steinem’s efforts triggered a flood of “Hate Black Men” books and films that continues to this day. That message was combined with the CIA's flooding of narcotics into black communities while the Justice Department incarcerated black men at globally historic rates. Gloria Steinem was a legitimate CIA operative for her entire life.
I kno she a social beast, I use to read her articles, always admired her intelligence,🤓 spirit,👻 GRIT, GUTS😼, SHE GOT SOUL, 💙💚RESPECT DUE, THIS LOOK LIKE A DOPE ASS FILM, I WANNA SEE 👌🎥🎥🎥👻👻🕊️
The feminist version of Aaron Sorkin's The Trial of Chicago 7. I know that this film is based on factual story about Gloria Steinem but i do think the film is quiet uneven, although engaging at times. I give this an 6.6/10. Very good film actually. 👍👍
I'm only vaguely familiar with Gloria Steinman's story, so she was basically what many 20th century women's liberationists modeled themselves after? Cause I've talked to many women who when they describe a "dramatic dream life" it seems very similar to these scenes...with Italy and Coachella thrown in for good measure. JT
Love Taymor, Moore, Vikander and Steinem (read many of her books and articles) so I'm looking forward to seeing this. One thing that drives me crazy though is this stereotypical, cliche, clap-trap about following your heart over your mind ('out of our heads and into our hearts'). We've got both, for a reason. We need to use both, for a reason. Throwing one out over the other is going to run you into problematic at best and disastrous at worse. Listen to your head, follow your heart, the best path lies when the two of them are combined.
Even though I'm not the biggest fan of Hugh Hefner... I was reading a book written by on of the Original Club Bunnies about the original Club bunnies ( even Debbie Harry of Blondie, Suzanne Sullivan ( My Best Friends Wedding), Carol Cleveland ( Monty Python ), Lauren Hutton, Katheryn Lee Scott, Kimba Wood ( U.S Federal Judge ), Lynn Moody ( Roots ) They said it was kind of a stepping stone for women even though 'Some" women didn't see it that way... They said they earned enough money to put themselves through college, to pay for kids & houses they said they earned more money in a week OR month then their fathers earned in a year
What a long battle it’s been. So many things have changed for the better. Now is the time for next big push because so many things have not changed. Can’t wait for this movie. ❤️
To anyone wondering why the thumbnail is of her in a bunnie suit is because it was part of her iconic story. Honestly I took one look at the thumbnail and knew it was going to be about female activism because the playboy club was an iconic part of the 60s as well as it's backlash and the growth of femals empowerment after. If the first thing you thought was that it was a way to grab a man's attention then you are part of the problem and you use an outdated form of feminism.
Před 3 lety
If the only thing you can think is what other people have told you think, you have a bigger problem than what other people think.
Unfortunate that the thumbnail click bait is the bunny outfit on a movie about such a powerful woman.
I WAS WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO SAY THIS!
True...except that her undercover work as a bunny is an iconic part of her career.

@@AmitZinmanVideo
A stretch huh? Let's do a too long for a YT comment examination of her involvement with the CIA. Maybe read it but I know you wont.
Before I start on Ms. Steinem I should offer a quick background on the reason we know much of what we know about the CIA's role in American media through the 60's and 70's.
In 1975 the U.S. Senate convened the Church Committee to investigate intelligence community abuses, including but not limited to the CIA. One of the most alarming revelations of the investigation was Project Mockingbird, a widespread CIA program paying journalists and authors to publish information that came directly from Langley, VA.
In 1967 Rampart Magazine did a story on a CIA cut out called the Independent Research Service. Steinem was forced to address the reason she was the director of this CIA front organization so she granted interviews to The NY Times and The Washington Post, both of which were exposed as complict in Project Mockingbird.
In both softball interviews she claims to have taken the initiative in contacting Cord Meyers, who headed the CIA’s International Organization Division and its prized Operation Mockingbird. So according to Steinem the propaganda campaign didn't seek her out, she approached them. It seems out of character for a liberal feminist to be approaching the CIA so that she can push their propaganda, until one studies Steinems character and not her words.
Despite her so-called liberal feminist credentials, Steinem has had a clear preference for very conservative men, often with CIA and/or FBI links. She had a nine-year relationship with Stanley Pottinger, a Nixon Ford assistant attorney general, who played a prominent role in undermining civil rights enforcement under both administrations. He also obstructed FBI investigations into the assassinations of Martin Luther King, and the ex-Chilean Foreign Minister Orlando Letelier.
In 1984 Pottinger was investigated for participating in the Iran contra scandal, a CIA scheme to illegally smuggle arms to Iran.
In the 1980’s, Steinem dated Henry Kissinger. Yes, Gloria Steinem- feminist icon -dated Henry Kissinger.
Concerns were again raised in 1975 when the feminist magazine Off Our Backs ran a story with their discovery of Steinem’s earlier CIA employment. The article raised a host of concerns about her sudden installation- mainly by corporate media -as the official leader of the US women’s movement without any previous involvement in feminist groups or campaigns.
During this 1975 scrutiny two prominent NOW members- Carol Hanisch and Kathie Sarachild -openly accused Steinem of working for the CIA and “directing the movement toward moderation and capitulation.” Ultimately NOW director Friedan became concerned “a paralysis of leadership” in the movement “could be due to the CIA” and demanded that Steinem respond.
After three months, Steinem wrote a six-page letter to various feminist publications describing her work on two student festivals in 1959 and 1962 that were funded by the CIA. Aiming to deflect the charge she was or had been a government operative, it stated, “I naively thought then that the ultimate money source didn’t matter since, in my own experience, no control or orders came with it.”
We now know this comment to be disingenuous as her direct role with the CIA officially ended in 1969 when she left the Independent Research Service. Although it was later discovered that she was on the CIA's payroll through 1975, at least.
The Off Our Backs article also raises questions about a parallel organization Steinem started in competition with NOW. Starting parallel groups is a common strategy employed by US intelligence to sabotage grassroots organizationsin. Steinem's contrived counter organization was called Women’s Action Alliance. It engaged mainly in information gathering. It had a $20,000 grant from Rockefeller Family Fund for the establishment of a “national clearinghouse information and referral service” on the women’s movement. WAA collected information on key women leaders and their groups and activities, presumably facilitation FBI/CIA efforts to monitor them.
In the late seventies and early seventies, African American organizers became concerned about a pattern in which agents posing as black feminists infiltrated their community groups in an effort to split off women members into separate organizations. This was traced back to a phenomenon in 1978 when Steinem put a book called Black Macho and the Myth of the Superwoman on the cover of Ms. Magazine which she was editing at the time.
The book was allegedly “written,” by a Black “feminist” and “activist” named Michele Wallace.

In the book, Wallace called abolitionists like Harriet Tubman and Sojourner Truth “ugly” and “stupid” for supporting Black men. She called Black Revolutionaries “chauvinist macho pigs” and advised Black women to “go it alone.”
Gloria Steinem maintained that Wallace’s book would “define the future of Black relationships” and she pushed hard to make sure the book received massive publicity. Gloria Steinem’s efforts triggered a flood of “Hate Black Men” books and films that continues to this day.
That message was combined with the CIA's flooding of narcotics into black communities while the Justice Department incarcerated black men at globally historic rates.
Gloria Steinem was a legitimate CIA operative for her entire life.

I was reading a book written by on of the Original Club Bunnies about the original Club bunnies ( even Debbie Harry of Blondie, Suzanne Sullivan ( My Best Friends Wedding), Carol Cleveland ( Monty Python ), Lauren Hutton, Katheryn Lee Scott, Kimba Wood ( U.S Federal Judge ), Lynn Moody ( Roots )
They said it was kind of a stepping stone for women even though 'Some" women didn't see it that way... They said they earned enough money to put themselves through college, to pay for kids & houses
they said they earned more money in a week OR month then their fathers earned in a year
What a long battle it’s been. So many things have changed for the better. Now is the time for next big push because so many things have not changed. Can’t wait for this movie. ❤️
Bhot hard
why isnt there any black actors in the title tho, Janelle is big, she should be there
At last. I get to see it and not hear about it.
To anyone wondering why the thumbnail is of her in a bunnie suit is because it was part of her iconic story. Honestly I took one look at the thumbnail and knew it was going to be about female activism because the playboy club was an iconic part of the 60s as well as it's backlash and the growth of femals empowerment after. If the first thing you thought was that it was a way to grab a man's attention then you are part of the problem and you use an outdated form of feminism.
If the only thing you can think is what other people have told you think, you have a bigger problem than what other people think.
