Mona Lisa's Smile

This story is about Katherine Ann Watson has accepted a position teaching art history at the prestigious Wellesley College. Watson is a very modern woman, particularly for the 1950s, and has a passion not only for art but for her students. For the most part, the students all seem to be biding their time, waiting to find the right man to marry. The students are all very bright and Watson feels they are not reaching their potential. Although a strong bond is formed between teacher and student, Watson's views are incompatible with the dominant culture of the college.
            Women's rights are entitlements and freedoms claimed for women and girls of all ages in many societies. In this story we can see that woman has their own responsibility and their way in living in the society. In some places these rights are institutionalized or supported by law, local custom, and behaviour, whereas in others they may be ignored or suppressed. Women’s rights around the world is an important indicator to understand global well-being. For this story i wanted to emphasize on the character of Elizabeth "Betty" Warren (Kirsten Dunst) is the quintessential fifties girl, obsessed with getting her Mrs. before getting her BA. She later discovers that one should be careful for what one wishes. She is also a nasty piece of work who doesn't care what misery for others her poison pen invectives and barbed comments cause.  Woman’s themself should think about the future rater then think about the next day. We should take this as an advice for us so that we did not make same mistake.
