I personally love a good historical fiction, especially ones that touch on parts of history that very few bother to write about and The Women does an amazing job touching on the little discussed women in the Vietnam War.
Most know by now that we treated the vets coming home from Vietnam like shit despite the fact that many had little choice in the US's decision in the war there but few realize how the women that were also part of that war were treated... hell, we still treat female vets like shit imo. So I greatly appreciated this fictional look at female vets in Vietnam.
