"A sly and thoroughly charming Trojan horse of a movie...has all the smooth surfaces and persuasive detail of a typical period picture - the fedoras, the rides, the Katherine Hepburn trousers. All that luster, which too often in a movie suggests polite manners and drowsily safe entertainment, proves to be a seductive, glossy way into something more satisfyingly complicated."
- Manohla Dargis, the New York Times
If behind every great man is a great woman, then Harvard psychologist and inventor Dr. William Moulton Marston has the good fortune of having two - his wife Elizabeth and their mutual lover Olive Byrne. In addition to helping him perfect the lie detector test, the two women also inspire him to create one of the greatest female superheroes of all time - the beloved comic book character Wonder Woman.
