Film Mainstreams Three-Sided Marriages

October 20, 2017

This trailer has had over a million disappointed viewers. Alas, the movie is agitprop, devoid of genuine eroticism or nudity. 

Harvey Weinstein or not, Hollywood continues its assault on 
society. Professor Marston & Wonder Woman is about the menage a trois that inspired the Wonder Woman comic book in the 1940's. We're talking about a man with a bisexual wife and mistress who also have sexual relations. The director, Angela Robertson, is a lesbian. The producer, Jewish heiress Megan Ellison, is also a lesbian.  It has received positive reviews but has not yet caught fire at the box office and won't because, apart from some inspired moments, the film is, in the words of one reviewer, "underpowered."   

Lesbianism is all about penis envy.  These women want to be men. The Illuminati -- call them Cabalists or Communists -- have always wanted to destroy heterosexual marriage and the nuclear family.  This movie is about "social pioneers" who want polyamorous, bisexual or lesbian marriage to be an acceptable template for the family.  I'll let this review from a Catholic website describe the movie and then conclude with more comments below. 




By Joseph McAleer

NEW YORK (CNS) -- Fans of the comic book superheroine Wonder Woman (and of the recent blockbuster film) are advised to steer well clear of "Professor Marston and the Wonder Women" (Annapurna).

The sheer escapist pleasure of watching the wholesome feminist icon fight for truth and justice is downright spoiled on learning the sordid story of the comic's creator, William Moulton Marston (1893-1947).

In this case, the truth hurts, and not simply because Marston (Luke Evans) liked to tie women up and paddle them. In addition to sadomasochism, he was a proponent of so-called free love and open marriage. Or, in Hollywood parlance, he was "ahead of his time."

At Radcliffe College in the late 1920s, the hunky professor teaches behavioral psychology to his eager female students. Marston purports that all human behavior can be traced to the interplay of four emotional states: dominance, inducement, submission, and compliance.

It's not hard to see where all this will lead. "People are happiest when they submit to a loving authority," Marston insists.

By his side is his wife and research partner, Elizabeth (Rebecca Hall). Together they invent a lie detecting machine, which offers multiple opportunities to ask awkward questions (and inspires Wonder Woman's "lasso of truth").

Open-minded Elizabeth tolerates her husband's roving eye. "I'm your wife, not your jailer," she says.

The door thus opened, in marches one of Marston's students, the gorgeous Olive (Bella Heathcote), who volunteers as a research assistant. Marston is instantly smitten. But Olive, in a surprising twist, only has eyes for Elizabeth, at least initially.

What ensues is an astonishing love triangle devoid of all propriety. The trio moves in together, engages promiscuously and, as the years pass, multiple babies are born.

It's only a matter of time before neighborhood whispers are confirmed, and Marston is fired. To earn a living (and support all those children), he turns to writing.

"I'm going to inject my ideas right into the thumping heart of America," Marston boasts.

Viewers will be disappointed to learn that the inspiration for Wonder Woman comes from Marston's visit to a seedy Manhattan sex shop filled with tight costumes, ropes and cuffs.

( i.e. Marriage? Never. Women used to raise upstanding citizens in strong families.) 

Indeed, the early years of the Wonder Woman comic (which began in 1941) raised eyebrows for its extreme violence, bondage episodes and an acceptance of "free love" and homosexual behavior. Amid calls for the comic to be banned, Marston is hauled before a tribunal headed by moral gatekeeper Josette Frank (Connie Britton), director of the Child Study Association of America.

He has some explaining to do, as does writer-director Angela Robinson, who eagerly hoists the banner of relativism, painting a sympathetic picture of the outrageous Marston triad and casting traditional morality to the winds.

So much for being lassoed by the truth.

The film contains a negative view of religion, strong sexual content with nudity, a benign view of aberrant behavior, pornography and birth control, sexual banter, frequent rough language and one profane oath. The Catholic News Service classification is O -- morally offensive. The Motion Picture Association of America rating is R -- restricted. Under 17 requires accompanying parent or adult guardian.

McAleer is a guest reviewer for Catholic News Service.

Makow rating "O" for bOring- The movie opens with a scene of repressed white Christians burning Wonder Women comics in the mold of Nazi Germany. 

Marston sold Wonder Woman as a feminist statement but it was a vehicle for his own weird views about "willing submission" which have an NWO resonance. (See below)  Indeed, in the movie, when Marston sells the concept to the Jewish comic book mogul, he makes a Masonic hand sign.

For a comic book about "female empowerment," Wonder Woman was obsessed with women in bondage or being spanked. The male role is also attacked. In real life, Marston wrote, "Give men an alluring woman stronger than themselves to submit to, and they'll be proud to become her willing slaves!" He is all for "submission to loving authority" as long as it is not a woman's to her husband's.

Apart from the usual feel-good scenes, there is nothing to recommend polyamorous relations or evidence that women --bisexual or otherwise-- are so "wonder"ful. The "sex" scene is basically three people hugging each other and jumping up-and-down. Ridiculous.

In a love relationship, people are seeking intimacy. Intimacy requires an exclusive two-way commitment. In a threesome, the parties are always shut out of another intimate relationship they are forced to witness at close quarters.

Furthermore, the filmmakers don't appreciate the irony of the man saving the family finances by inventing the comic book about how powerful women are. This movie has its moments of good dialogue but overall, it comes across as a history lesson. A much better movie about lesbians is Lisa Cholodenko's High Art (1998.)

Wikipedia- The gender-bending theories of the real William Moulton Marston: "Though Marston had described female nature as being more capable of submission emotion, in his other writings and interviews, he referred to submission as a noble practice and did not shy away from the sexual implications, saying:

The only hope for peace is to teach people who are full of pep and unbound force to enjoy being bound... Only when the control of self by others is more pleasant than the unbound assertion of self in human relationships can we hope for a stable, peaceful human society... Giving to others, being controlled by them, submitting to other people cannot possibly be enjoyable without a strong erotic element."

One of the purposes of these bondage depictions was to induce eroticism in readers as a part of what he called "sex love training." Through his Wonder Woman comics, he aimed to condition readers to become more readily accepting of loving submission to loving authorities rather than being so assertive with their own destructive egos.

About male readers, he later wrote: "Give them an alluring woman stronger than themselves to submit to, and they'll be proud to become her willing slaves!"

I was talking to an acquaintance and he referred to his first wife as Thunder Cunt. I've been laughing at this for a few days now. The disrespect women bring on themselves is horrible and by following the libtard-feminist agenda they have destroyed themselves and their families.

Such a film doesn't surprise me in today's society. We accept anything except righteousness these days. Having done a cursory check of the reviews out for this movie, I see that the critics are looking at it favorably. Rotten Tomatoes gives it an 87% favorable rating. Roger Ebert gives it 3 out of 4 stars. IGN.com gives it 8.3/10. All that's left is for the masses to compliantly fall in line with what the satanic masters dictate is the latest good thing.

If people don't start boycotting Hollywood (both on the big screen and TV), society will continue its downward slide. Whatever values they project onto a screen become our reality.

People really don't seem to understand just how insidious and inimical TV shows and movies have become. When a starkly vulgar show like Two and a Half Men, for example, can become popular, you know we're screwed. People are just not critical thinkers anymore (except when it comes to morality, wherein they view any good morals with suspicion, but this too is programmed response). They only accept something if it feels good to them. The brainwashing of Western society has been a smashing success.


Ryan said (October 20, 2017):

Just from the trailer, I see a film that promotes polygamy, bondage and a re-thinking of social norms. Sure, the film-makers have created beautiful sets and wardrobe and have re-created the era with flawless precision to give the film a classy highbrow look and feel.

The main characters all speak in an intelligent and elegant manner. But in my opinion, this is all to make their perverse ideology more palatable and their cause seem revolutionary. It's as if society in 2017 is now supposed to be more socially evolved and accepting of these morally deviant lifestyle choices that were widely rejected by the close-minded, prudish, comic book burning masses back then. I'll pass on this one.
