"This is the year of Women's Liberation!" Roadside has finally unveiled the first teaser trailer for the film The Glorias, directed by acclaimed filmmaker Julie Taymor (Frida, Across the Universe). This originally premiered at the Sundance Film Festival earlier this year to mixed reviews, along with some praise for the ambition. The film tells the story of feminist icon Gloria Steinem's itinerant childhood's influence on her life as a writer, activist and organizer for women's rights worldwide. The title is "The Glorias" (plural) because various actresses play Steinem at different stages of her life: Alicia Vikander, Julianne Moore, Ryan Kiera Armstrong, and Lulu Wilson as play Gloria. The cast also includes a number of iconic women who made profound contributions to the women's movement over the years, including Dorothy Pitman Hughes (Janelle Monáe), Flo Kennedy (Lorraine Toussaint), Bella Abzug (Bette Midler), Dolores Huerta (Monica Sanchez), and Wilma Mankiller (Kimberly Guerrero). The film will be skipping theaters and playing on VOD right away, and this is just a teaser to build buzz. The full trailer will debut later this month. ›››
