Watch Beautiful For Free

Simply A Masterpiece

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

Minnie Driver does an excellent job at this film. It's the first one that I ever saw. Mona (Minnie Driver) wanted to be Miss America Miss ever since she was twelve. Her life long friend Ruby helps her with her dresses and calms her down when she starts to panic. Though Mona has a secret. To be Miss America Miss you can't have a child but Mona did and Ruby covered for her saying the child was hers. Mona and Vanessa (her child) do not get along, but when Ruby is accused of an elder patient taking an overdose and is put in jail, Mona takes Vanessa with her to California and the two grow to be kinder to each other. Then, when Mona is a part of the top three, is admits to the world that Vanessa is Mona's daughter. The shock inspired everyone and she was named the first Miss America Miss that has a child. She uses her money to free Ruby and gives her a car. This movie is awesome. Minnie Driver does an excellent job and gets so into the character. Plus she has a great singing voice. She is really great.

I read one comment given by other people,said it is one of the messiest film, I don't think so ,although Mona does something we dislike ,she also felt guilty . And just like someone said before there is someone who need to give up something to fulfill their dreams.And she sticks her dream so long ,who can hold our dream like her, from the childhood till the adulthood.as chairman Mao has sail, so many deeds cry out to be done and always urgently ,time presses, ten thousand years is too long, seize the day ,seize the hour !everyone needs to utmost their best to make the dream come true!PS: I like the song very much,who can tell me the name, ,thanks a lot!

On the unbelievable side but still an interesting look at a woman totally dedicated to winning beauty pageants as a way to build self esteem. A pushy, driven person who never quite grew up and leaned heavily on a childhood friend for the guidance and support she never received growing up in a loveless home. Good show with a 2 hankie finale.

Possibly the worst movie I've ever had the disposition to sit through. For starters its minnie driver, a horrible actor who could never play anybody but her own personality which adds no element to any character she plays. Second, the Pepsi girl works for PEPSI, thats about it, she comes off as unreal, and incredibly annoying. Lastly, when is anyone drawn into to caring, personally all I ever saw was that this stuck up girl abandoned everybody that ever got close to her and when she really needed someone they did what she did to them all her life. There was no reason to ever make this movie, more people probably voted for it than actually saw it. If I could erase the memory of one movie in my whole existence, beautiful takes the cake
