North Country (2005)

North Country (2005)

Hard to watch at times, this movie deals with very serious themes. I think it would be too much for smaller children but could be OK for teenagers to see.

Basically, it is the story of a landmark lawsuit that won rights for women in the workplace (in this case a tough-as-nails steel mine). This is just a glimpse into the lives of these women but almost overwhelmed me with the cruelty and abuse they put up with. If you need a good laugh, watch something else, but take the time to watch this too... and keep the kleenex handy.
