On another note, Mrs Mild and I went to see the Miyazaki movie, The Boy and The Heron (would recommend). We sat thru what seemed like 30 minutes of previews, most of which were either horror movies or the "underdog(s) who beat the odds". One of them had an actual dog as a part of the story. These were advertised as "Based on the Book/True Story/Real Events". None of them were anything Mrs Mild or I would be interested in.
There was an interesting article (maybe Substack) recently about how men's hobbies are all outdoors (cars, golf, sports in general), while women's are indoors (sewing, knitting, etc). It's a generalization, of course, but this movie description sounds like it is living up to that stereotype.

"Women can have it all," was poisonous enough; "women can DO it all" is even worse.
