I watched the movie today for the first time. I recall watching an old movie at Amelia Earhart when I was a kid and finding it moving. This version with Hillary Swank playing the aviatrix was also interesting. It saddens me to be reminded at the difference between the heroines my grandmother's generation compared to what the youngsters these days see in the media. Today, the entire media applauds the biggest nitwits they can find and create stars out of women with no talent. Today, the mainstream media demeans conservative women of power. FOX may not work as hard at demeaning liberal women, but at least Katie Couric doesn't have the camera sweep in front of her glass top desk so she can have the male audience refocus on her legs every minute and a half.
