Did anyone else go see Wonder Woman this summer?  The superhero biopic has broken records and glass ceilings all over the place, making it the highest-grossing live-action film directed by a woman, the highest-grossing opening weekend from a female director, the highest-grossing woman-led superhero film, the first Marvel or DC Comics film directed by a woman, and the biggest domestic earnings for a DC Comics film (take that, Batman and Superman!)  Records aside, I was totally smitten with the film.  I walked out of that movie theatre bubbling with energy, feeling inspired and ready to take on the world.  My husband described me as “amped up.” 

Wonder Woman’s creator, Dr. William Marston, once described Wonder Woman as “psychological propaganda for the type of woman who, I believe, should rule the world.”
