“This was not what I expected, itu0026#39;s even better.nSheu0026#39;s kind of a hardass and I didnu0026#39;t even know!u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI was prepared for a light hearted Dr. Ruth montage of people asking questions.nWhat we get is a deeper look into her past including diary entries while orphaned in Switzerland during the war. That part might make you cry among other things.nOverall we see a woman who doesnu0026#39;t let anything drag her down as sheu0026#39;s changing the culture and how we talk about sex today.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe film was well made, it does kind of end without a conclusion, or at least thatu0026#39;s what it felt like to me. Oh, and the parts with the child voice-over reading the diary was weird without a German accent.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eShould you watch it?nYeah! Itu0026#39;s not about sex as much as itu0026#39;s about her life and career. The woman is 91 and still writing books. We all have something to learn from this film.”
