Query: Cinematic female mutilation

If ever a movie betrayed the cause of the book that spawned it, it is "The Divine Secrets of the Ya Ya Sisterhood."Rebecca Wells's marvelous book tells the story of a small band of wartime friends whose lives and fantasies are infused with the mythical feminine. Symbols and experiences of femaleness run throughout the book -- from tarted up Holy Ladies to time-stopping rides on a (female) circus elephant. What images the movie does take are either masculinized (turning the elephant into a phallic airplane piloted by a man!) or diminished and cutesified (the girls flashing their bras at a local police officer rather than floating in a mother-bath under moonlight in a watertower).Read the book instead, or listen to Rebecca Wells's terrific reading of the abridged version.
