One movie that kept coming to mind while watching Women Talking was Extremities with Farrah Fawcett. It's based on a play. And the premise involves a woman who holds her rapist hostage. Alfre Woodard and Diana Scarwid play her roommates and the movie is mostly them discussing what to do with the rapist. It's incredible and I highly recommend it.

Alyssa makes 'Women Talking' sound haunting.

How would Netflix handle password sharing with Roku like devices where people bring them on a vacation where the IP address will change?

How would Netflix handle password sharing with phone devices where the IP address will change?

How would Netflix handle password sharing with T-Mobile subscribers where a "family" gets to use the same Netflix account even though the IP address will be different?

All great technical questions for Netflix’s engineers to work out!

They'd better work them out BEFORE they implement their "no password sharing" plans, or they will needlessly anger a lot of paying customers.

I take it Sonny isn't a big "interior lives of women" guy?

Netflix should allow subscribers to pay extra for multiple users. They would probably raise more revenue. I currently pay $19.99 for the premium service so that my nieces and nephews can use the service simultaneously. I'd pay a couple bucks more to make sure they can still use the same account. They should provide more options.

I do the same with my elderly father. He won't set up his own Netflix account, and if I can't share my account with him I will have no reason to retain my current level of service, either. If Netflix won't permit me to pay a small fee to keep him on my account, they will lose money from me, and not gain any from him. How is that a win for Netflix?

Does Sonny have an example of a movie that examines issues surrounding the abuse of women that he thinks is done well?

Fairly recently you had THE ASSISTANT, which is pretty good.

Wasn't as strong a movie as I had hoped. And, sorry, not on Twitter so comments here.

2 things: I doubt any of the women chose to live in that community; more likely they were born and raised/being raised there.

Using '12 Angry Men' as the rebuttal hit flat. Yikes.
