“Unfortunately, this movie tells only one side of the story so it really does not do justice to Anita Hill. I too, watched the proceedings and this movie does not tell it like it really happened. If you want to see a movie that degrades the senate and makes a monster out of Clarence Thomas without even an attempt at fairness or equality, then this is the movie for you. It is so biased that it was only believable by someone who was already convinced of Thomasu0026#39; guilt. It was so biased that it came across as a work of fiction. As such, it is less than useless for telling the facts. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIts a shame really, this story needs to be told properly. I can only imagine the courage it must have taken to stand before the senate and testify about this kind of thing. As my dad used to say u0026quot;if you want it screwed up, give it to the government… or Hollywoodu0026quot;”
