Question

Write a critical analysis of the story 'The other woman' By dilna mehta with special reference to the prose style

Answer 1

I wasn’t going to review this film, or watch it, but this weekend it outsold Captain America against all expectations in the States, and I felt the financial gesture of the female public was too strong for a (sometimes) feminist perspective film reviewer to skip, particularly given Cate Blanchette’s appeal for a round earth perspective on the return value of backing female lead driven films. As of this review, the film is well on its way to doubling its forty million dollar budget, despite it’s overwhelming poor reviews, as opposed to Captain America (a film I stopped watching half way through out of fear I would die of boredom) which received overwhelmingly positive reviews, had a one hundred and seventy million dollar budget and is currently looking at a seven hundred million box office haul (just over four times its budget). It makes no sense that this film would out sell Captain America on its second week (only Captain America’s third) a film that is more than quadrupling its budget. So, given those stats, The Other Woman outplaying Captain America under these circumstances is noteworthy, and drove this reviewer into the cinemas to see what all the fuss is about.
