And God Created Woman

Summary: And God Created Rebecca De Mornay
Review: AND GOD CREATED WOMAN is a remake of the classic Bridgett Bardot film but in title only. The movie is pretty predictable, so it is only saved by just having Rebecca De Mornay heating up the screen. There is a hilarious chain of events near the beginning of the film. She escapes from a women's prison, hitchhikes a ride (from a man played by Frank Langella in the car), and the vehicle ends up at the prison she's escaped from. So, she has to sneak back into prison without being noticed. A contractor (Vincent Spano) helps her out while he's working on some construction in the prison gymnasium...The rest of the plot is not very memorable as she tries to start her own rock band when she's paroled and must sacrifice integrity and her marriage to get to the top etc. Overall, a movie that was made to showcase the "talents" of Ms. DeMornay and nothing else.

Summary: A different kind of view
Review: I liked this movie because I could relate to some of the relationship problems in my past i.e. 2 of 5 women who first told me they loved me then told me I'd be a lonely old guy, I told them both,better than than being a miserable young man with them.Women I've known,they all think they're smarter than me always trying to tell me stuff I already know.Anyway I liked the movie and all the arguments and humor,a typical politician got have something on the side [...],but has to becareful of his image.Rebecca DeMornay was excellent as a free spirit,not a gold digger or typical hollywood bimbo, like those other hollywood bimbos. I thought she was great in this movie,the other actors were good too. I think because of jealousy by other people in Hollywood, Ms. DeMornays efforts are not recognized. This movie was very entertaing but see it for yourself [....]

Summary: And old-fashioned tale about a modern Cinderella.
Review: I love this film because both the movie and Rebecca De Mornay are bright, breezy, and fun. It's a Cinderella story turned on it's ear with a blue collar Prince Charming (Billy played by Vincent Spano) barely able to stay afloat in contemporary middle income lifestyle, but stable enough to help lift a lovely jailbird Princess (Robin played by De Mornay) out of both a physical and personal prison, but this being a contemporary story she controls her own destiny and plots her own path. An evil politician (played by Frank Langella) adds to the fun as does some laughs that springs from realistic situations. At the heart is an old-fashioned romance. We know from the start that Billy and Robin are meant for each other. The language and mild love scenes (played cute and tasteful) that give the film an R-rating are overshadowed by the entire atmosphere of the film which more accurately should have been awarded a PG-13 rating (this is not "Hand That Rocks the Cradle" or "Risky Business." Also don't confuse with the original "And God Created Women" which is pure trash). Despite themes of feminism and romance, there is enough fun to keep the guys interested too, most notably the sexy but ever wholesome De Mornay.

Summary: Somewhere between a guilty pleasure and an underrated gem
Review: If you can forget the whole remake thing, this is a somewhat involving movie, with interesting plot twists, a great performance by De Mornay, nice supporting performances, interesting if corny character development, a nice sound track, Vadim's strange but unique visual style and it's very sexy. What more do you want? I think as time goes on and a new generation stumbles on this flick free from the hype about it being a remake of a "classic" it will be appreciated more and more as a nice offbeat B movie melodrama with lots of sex, some nice humor and beautiful photography.

Summary: For Rebecca DeMornay Fans Only
Review: If you were hooked by Rebecca De Mornay's sexiness in Risky Business (like I was), this movie is for you. She is so beautiful and voraciously sexual throughout. The story has a few flaws (she nearly has her parole revoked for being photographed having sex with her husband??) but it is a worthwhile vehicle for doing what she does so well.

Summary: A sexy film
Review: Man,is this a sexy film. Rebecca DeMornay is Robin,a paroled convict who forms a band with some people who answer an ad she placed(she's the lead singer and rhythm guitarist). Upon her release from jail she marries the handsome man who bails her out. So Robin begins her new life with her new husband Billy(Vincent Spano) and his young son,Timmy,from an earlier marriage. Handyman Billy has a younger brother who's a musician also. He also works as a sales clerk at a fast food restaurant(he was fired from the restaurant after failing to show up too many times). Billy and Robin had affairs with others during their marriage which never ended. Robin had sexual affairs with governor hopeful James Tiernan(Frank Langella). They shot pool together and Billy went bowling with another woman. After Billy an Robin engage in a sexual activity on a bed inside a museum,they're photographed by a patron. The photograph is brought to the attention of Robin's parole officer. Now Robin's about to go back to jail. Billy gets a lawyer and fights to the finish for Robin's revoked parole. James even admitted,"Miss Shay(Robin) is getting too dangerous for me.". So Robin and her band perform in a nightclub and she catches the eye of a male sex fiend. Jealous Billy beats the crap out of the sex fiend. So to keep the marriage alive,Billy plans to go to Robin's jail(Billy confessed to her that he murdered another woman). Awesome film!

Summary: For Rebecca DeMornay Fans Only
Review: This film pails in comparison to the original in both plot and execution. The true sadness of the remake, however, is its attempt to legitimize some timely and fraudulent feminist ideals. In the original 1957 film, Brigitte Bardot plays a young orphan trying to come to terms with the power and curse of being a beautiful woman. In the remake, Rebecca Demornay plays a more mature prison inmate, completely comfortable making use of her feminine power. Unlike the original, Demornay's character gives herself willingly to a man with money and power and to another man with raw sexual appeal as long as it suits her and is on her own terms.

Both films center around a marriage of convenience, contrived to secure the liberty of the heroin. In the original, the husband sees beneath the flirtatious immaturity of the girl to the true woman desiring love and respect and afraid she will fall short of deserving it. She works hard to be a good wife and is truly distraught, even self-destructive, when she fails by committing adultery. In the remake, the husband expects some semblance of a marriage but is denied by the freedom demanding Demornay. Like the original, the marriage vows are betrayed; but, unlike the original, both the wife and husband are guilty of adultery -a contrived attempt at feminist parity. Like the original, the result of the adultery is the physical expression of outrage then forgiveness (this time by both husband and wife), which leads to securing their love. The problem with the remake is there is no covenant for either to betray -both agreed with and even encouraged the adultery. Neither the husband nor the wife is worthy of respect; both however demand it, making the expression of outrage ridiculous.

This original film expresses the profundity of feminine attractiveness and provides a glimpse at the answer to the Freudian question, "what do women want?". The original film teaches that women want the freedom to express their femininity and sexuality within the confines of a loving, supportive and respectful relationship. The remake changes the answer in light of the feminist movement. The modern woman desires freedom above all else, demands respect without earning it and gives love when it suits her. The original film ends quietly, happy and triumphant in the knowledge that the marriage is secure. The remake ends triumphantly, but sadly, as if a change in the wind's direction, or a whim, could cause the couples separation.

Summary: (Not very good) porno dreck!
Review: This was a very tiring movie. Roger Vadim did much better, as did both Rebecca DeMornay and Frank Langella. A better choice would be Vadim's original "And God Created Woman" or (even better) the French language version "Et le Dieu Crea la Femme."
