Reviewer quote from Silver Spring, MD - March 2004: "The story of the women's suffrage movement in America during the period 1912- 1920 moves along crisply, and the acting is of high caliber. This is not your grandmother's civil rights history; it is contemporary, relevant and occasionally funny. These are powerful, intelligent women who launch a quixotic campaign to win voting rights against the opposition of most men, including President Wilson, and not a few women. Set against a historical background that includes Prohibition and the outbreak of World War I, the film doesn't shy away from tough subjects -- the human rights abuses committed against the movement's leaders are depicted graphically and would not be suitable for young viewers. The 2000 Presidential election was a wake-up call about the need to exercise our constitutional rights. This film reminds us never to take those rights for granted."
