Remember how you did a which brother is hottest from "seven brides for seven brothers" during the men's tournament? Could you do it again for the ladies please?
To partake in this poll, you must watch a bunch of women in 19th century underwear singing about how much they like weddings and/or how much they hate winter. (This is a weird musical.)

Seven:
Look it's definitely a product of its time. Inescapable commentary to be made about the heavy misogyny and... more than questionable relationship development (stockholm syndrome who's she?) But for some reason this goddamn movie musical just won't leave me alone. I've written college essays about it. When I was in elementary school, I hyperfixated on it so hard I could recite the script-- lines, songs, blocking, even do a good bit of choreography-- all from heart. I'd play that barn dance scene over and over when I was down, just to feel something. This film scratched an itch so deep in the crevices of my brain that I'm stuck with it for better or for worse.

Reason for divorce:
Adam's an asshole (his misogynistic attitudes are challenged in the film, sure, but I don't think he particularly earns forgiveness), Milly deserves better.

Watching Seven Brides for Seven Brothers since childhood is kind of a trip
When you're a kid, you don't know enough about the overarching societal structure to understand the themes or messages. You just feel sorry for Millie for being around a bunch of mean, scary men and then you cheer when they start cleaning up their act for her
When you get a little older, you realize "hey, this is actually kinda fucked up" and become uncomfortable with the premise. The kidnapping aspect eclipses everything else and you wonder why you used to like it
Then, you watch it again. You pay more attention and realize the narrative is on Millie's side from the beginning. It sympathizes with her position and the story bows to her will the moment she puts her foot down. She uses her authority over the household to help both the family she married into and the women they kidnap. All the brothers learn their lesson the hard way - which they admit they fucking earned the ire of the women and the townsfolk
Yes, it's a product of its time, and if it happened in real life it'd be a much different tune, but considering the circumstances, it's a damn fine movie
Also, the dancing scene is the funnest to ever exist i don't make the rules

I thought of you when we were watching 7 Brides for 7 Brothers, and I thought it might be fun if you got time after the finals (long long way away I know) to run pollsof actors in movies/movie series? Example: there's at least 7 male actors in that film it might be funny to watch people fight over. There's also 7 main female characters.
Anyway. They sure chose some hot men in that vintage musical.
I am definitely going to do this! I was actually thinking earlier this week it would be fun to do mini polls focused on sets of characters within movies, but only after all the big tournaments have finished.
Required viewing to vote in this poll: The Barn Dance, Seven Brides for Seven Brothers

What's a movie that you love that you feel like you can't recommend to anyone?
For me, it's Seven Brides for Seven Brothers. (Spoilers ahead)
This is a movie musical made in the 1950's and set in the 1850's. It follows the story of 7 brothers who have lived all alone in the mountains in Oregon for basically their entire lives. The oldest brother, Adam, visits town one day and returns home with a wife, Milly, who resolves to teach the boys how to behave like gentlemen. Eventually, she takes them all into town for a barn raising festival and, through an epic dance battle, each of the six unmarried brothers wins the heart of a girl in town. However, after a brawl, they go back up to the mountains and are heartbroken by the knowledge that they don't get to see their girls anymore. After the second oldest brother, Benjamin, tells Milly that he plans to leave the farm, Milly tells Adam that the boys are heartbroken and must see those girls again. So, Adam, inspired by a story in one of Milly's books, resolves to take his brothers into town to kidnap the girls. Yes, kidnap. On their way back up the mountain, they cause an avalanche on the pass so the girls' families can't take them back. But when they return home, Milly is horrified and gives the house to the girls while forcing the boys into the barn. Adam, angered at Milly, leaves to stay at the hunting lodge all winter. At first, the girls are rightfully made at the brothers, but as winter turns to spring, they fall in love with them again (because of this, my grandmother and I nicknamed it Stockholm Syndrome, The Musical). Milly also has a baby during this time. The girls' families come to take them back, but the girls will not leave. Someone hears the baby crying, and each girl claims the baby as their own so they will have to be allowed go get married. And get married, they do. All at once. In the living room.
In the standards of 2024, this movie is quite problematic. Adam is a misogynistic jerk, and kidnapping is definitely not okay among other things I'm probably forgetting about.
Therefore, I would not recommend this movie to anyone unless they can remember two important things: The first is that this movie was not made for the standards of today. Just plain and simple, it wasn't. And the second is that even in the 1950's, it was a satire. We were never supposed to agree with the brothers' methods or Adam's misogyny. And Milly proves that, as she constantly points out where they went wrong. By the end of the movie, everyone has grown better than they were at the start. It's a silly story about love & growth, and the first musical I've ever seen where I thought the dancing was more memorable than the music (and I loved the music). If you can view it the way it was meant to be viewed, it's a delightful story. If you can't, then just don't watch it.
