I don't know about that... there's a great scene in The Verdict where Paul Newman punches the lights out of Charlotte Rampling and the whole theater cheered.
As a woman, I have to post to this. This is the year 2010 folks, not 1810. Back then, a woman didn't do things like go around getting trashed in bars and provoking men, that's why there was more chivalry back then. But, they stayed home and raised the kids. Now, women want equality in everything? So, you take the good with the bad.
Now, I don't think hitting should be ANYONE'S first response to a situation, but let's look at this...Drunken, obnoxious bitch gets way up in some guys face, in a situation where there is alcohol and everyone KNOWS they are being filmed. What did she think? That she would be 'safe' acting the fool?
Well, surprise, surprise, my little orange-tinted New Jerseyite! You got clocked, ya dumb bitch!
If you want to be treated like a lady, then ACT like one!
