Women have the freedom to choose which university they will attend (if they plan on attending college), what career they wish to pursue, and also whom their mate in marriage will be. In early American days, liberties of women were looked upon from society as being wealthy and holding high social status. Many did not have the opportunity to pursue a
The movie that I watched was titled V for Vendetta and was a tremendously deep story that followed a girl named Evey Hammond. The movie was set in a futuristic totalitarian Britain, where there were many strict laws and curfews that must be followed. (Alex W. 2005.) Evey was out late one evening, just after it had hit the curfew time and was attacked by a group of men who seemed to want to either rape her or murder her.

At the death of Mr. Hammond, his wife not only inherits his fortune but
