The film Monalisa Smile is refreshingly contrasted to our relaxed manner of life. The film’s best intention is to present themes of feminine independence. It's an excellent message for young women that should be embraced.
Monalisa Smile stars Julia Roberts as Katherine Watson, a new teacher who has accepted a position to teach art history at Wellesley - the all women college in Massachusetts. Professor Watson is unprepared for her first day of class, as she faces a class of young women who exceed the course requirements. Watson stumbles on some decent lesson plans—she explains that paint-by-numbers is unoriginal—but she spends most of her time at Wellesley treating men like dirt, berating students for wanting to get married and being an emotionally wrecked busybody.
In this movie, the women are brought up in a conservative manner. They were taught to be a good house wife rather be the working woman. Professor Watson changed the mind set of her students to be independence and against the actual thought of the society about the women.
Women must have the courage to fight for their rights and be independent. This is the message that delivered clearly in this movie. But, is Monalisa in the real painting smilling? Or is she a male or female? This is the million dollar question that even till now hasn’t got the answer.
