Woman of the Year 1942

Any enjoyment I received from this film is solely because I love Katharine Hepburn.

"I'm tired of winning prizes...this time I want to be the prize myself." -> Huzzah, woman is tired of receiving objects and would like to become an object instead.

Tess is the most successful woman in America, and yet of course her life is meaningless because she cannot provide a "home" for a man and a child and is thus unlovable. What utter trash.

Tess remained exactly the same before and after her marriage: it's just that Sam assumed that she'd pay more attention to him and be more domestic after she became his wife. It's not her fault that he married an idealized (from his point of view) version of her.

I'm not saying Tess is perfect, but at the end of the day, what Sam saw is exactly what Sam got re: Tess, but he didn't like that.

I'M SO SORRY YOU WERE MADE TO FEEL INCOMPLETE AND WERE FORCED TO ATTEMPT TO COOK YOUR WAY INTO A MAN'S HEART, TESS. YOU DESERVED BETTER.

Strong woman, traditional man. The strong woman portrayed as heartless only to see the right way by being a proper wife.. What a joke; and it is not just because of "the times".
