Mona Lisa Smile (2003) (original) (raw)

In 1953, a time when women's roles were rigidly defined, free-spirited, novice art history
professor Katherine Ann Watson (Julia Roberts) begins teaching at the prestigious all-female
Wellesley College--which despite its academic reputation, is an environment where success is
measured by 'how well' the students marry. Encouraging these women to strive for a more
enlightened future, Watson challenges the administration and inspires her students to look
beyond the image of what is, and consider the possibilities of what could be--contrary to
popular belief.
