Any film with a Rotten Tomatoes or Metacritic rating below 80% obviously has an issue or two. Especially if the aggregate is closer to 70.
I’ve yet to see Julie Taymor‘s The Glorias (Roadside, 9.20), but as far as the inhabiting and reanimation of Gloria Steinem is concerned, I was profoundly impressed by Rose Byrne‘s effort in Mrs. America, so there’s that hurdle.
It’s no surprise that costar Timothy Hutton, who plays Gloria’s travelling-antique-salesman dad, Leo Steinem, and who ran into some difficulty earlier this year, is absent from the trailer.
