Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
Julia Roberts's command of the screen is so effortless, it's easy for moviegoers to take her for granted--but we shouldn't. Mona Lisa Smile--about a noncomformist teacher at a private school who encourages students to pursue their individuality--is pretty much an all-girls version of Dead Poets Society that mixes '50s fashions with '70s feminist thought. However, its lack of ambition doesn't diminish the talent that's gone into it: The writing and directing are well-honed and skillful; the actors--a talent-studded cast featuring Marcia Gay Harden, Kirsten Dunst, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Julia Stiles, and Juliet Stevenson--are uniformly excellent. But without question, Mona Lisa Smile rides on Roberts's shoulders and she carries it with ease. She's possibly the only contemporary actor who simply owns a movie the way Bette Davis, Jean Arthur, or Claudette Colbert once did, radiating a engaging mix of intelligence, drive, and emotional warmth that cannot be matched. --Bret Fetzer

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Fabulous Feminism in the Fifties
Just saw this movie, based upon a 30-something professor of Art History, traveling solo from California to prestigious Wellesley. Her mission, revealed as it occurs...to deliver an unconventional, challenging style of education for young women, who have the right to be more than a breeder.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great movie for girl's night in
I saw an ad for this movie on an old VHS of a movie or show I had taped when it came out, and had to have the movie. I loved it when I saw it in the theater, and am glad to add it to my collection!



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Blu-ray: A solid performance by Julia Roberts but an average film and Blu-ray release at best.
In 2003, the film "Mona Lisa Smile" which was a loose adaptation of the novel "The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie" by Muriel Spark was released in theaters.

The film which was released a week before Christmas did quite well at the box office (considering "The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King" was dominating the box office) and made over $141 million worldwide.

"Mona Lisa Smile" was directed by Mike Newell ("Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire", "Prince of Persia: The Sands ... Read More
