SIFF~Actresses AND The Freebie

This movie was very intriguing not only for getting used to the subtitles that had to be carefully read, but the overall plot for how all these actresses connected. This movie had a lot to do with female empowerment by basing it on the actual experiences that these famous actresses had to go through. They all start out like typical women--stressed about getting to work on time and preparing for the responsibilities they will have that day. As the photoshoot continues, of course comes some drama between the actresses--talking crap behind the other's back and trying to piss the other one off. But towards the end, they all come together during a long dinner scene and discuss their feelings of the struggles they deal with. All of them share a deep understanding of one another and end up all laughing over all the worries they've had and soon get along the best since they all met.



This movie was one, if not, of my favorites of the SIFF. It had such a great humor to it, as the audience can easily connect with their relationship--whether in good or bad situations. As the movie starts off with their quirky and cute connections, they realize the intimacy that's missing. Seeing how this may be a problem, they both decide to give eachother a "freebie", letting both of them have even a one night stand with someone else, to see just exactly how serious their own relationship is. What I love about this movie is that without having to give the answer of whether or not they slept with someone else, they realize how much they love eachother and want things to stay as they were.
