About This Movie

Top Girls is an interesting piece from the early '90s that blends both drama and a touch of surrealism. The dinner party setup creates this unique atmosphere where historical figures converse, revealing their struggles and aspirations. It’s pretty fascinating how the script captures the essence of feminism and the women's experiences across different eras. The pacing feels deliberate, allowing each character to bring her story to life, which can be a bit slow but ultimately rewarding. Performances are strong, really capturing the essence of each woman. What stands out is how it challenges the notion of success and the cost that comes with it. The practical effects are minimal, but the dialogue is rich and layered.

Explores themes of feminism and societal roles. · Features a unique dinner party format with historical figures. · Strong performances that capture complex narratives.
