The Women Contest

It's the week of The Women and to continue to build awareness the studio has offered a give-away of the soundtrack to the readers of Women & Hollywood.

In order to win the soundtrack you need to email me at melsil@earthlink.net the answers to the following questions (they're really easy):

  • What year was the original film made?
  • Name two other films that starred women that opened that year?
  • Who wrote the original film?
  • Diane English (the film's writer and director) created what TV series?
Include your address in the email so the prize can be mailed to you.

Film description: The Women tells the story of Mary Haines (Meg Ryan), a clothing designer who seems to have it all – a beautiful country home, a rich financier husband, an adorable 11-year-old daughter and a part-time career creating designs for her father’s venerable clothing company. Her best friend, Sylvie Fowler (Annette Bening), leads another enviable life – a happily single editor of a prominent fashion magazine, a possessor of a huge closet of designer clothes and a revered arbiter of taste and style poised on New York’s cutting edge. But when Mary’s husband enters into an affair with Crystal Allen (Eva Mendes), a sultry ‘spritzer girl’ lurking behind the Saks Fifth Avenue perfume counter, all hell breaks loose. Mary and Sylvie’s relationship is tested to the breaking point while their tight-knit circle of friends, including mega-mommy Edie Cohen (Debra Messing) and author Alex Fisher (Jada Pinkett-Smith), all start to question their own friendships and romantic relationships as well.
