The Women (2008) watch online

The Women is a 2008 American comedy-drama film written, produced and directed by Diane English. It stars an ensemble cast including Meg Ryan, Annette Bening, Eva Mendes, Debra Messing, Jada Pinkett Smith, Carrie Fisher, Cloris Leachman, Debi Mazar, Bette Midler, and Candice Bergen. The screenplay is an updated version of the 1939 film of the same name based on a 1936 play by Clare Boothe Luce and follows a wealthy New York woman (Ryan) whose seemingly perfect life unravels when she discovers her husband’s infidelity, leading her and her circle of friends to reevaluate their identities.

The film was shot in New York City and Massachusetts, with no men appearing on screen, just like George Cukor's 1939 version. The Women was widely panned by critics for lacking the wit and charm of the original, though some praised its craftsmanship. Despite the mostly negative reviews, it became a moderate box-office success, eventually grossing $50 million worldwide, split evenly between domestic and international markets. While her performance in the film earned Mendes a Best Actress nomination at the 11th ALMA Awards, the main cast received several negative honors, including Razzie Award nominations for Worst Actress for each of the leading actresses.
