We watched Netflix's new fantasy action movie Damsel, starring Millie Bobby Brown. Did we enjoy the movie? Um...not quite. The Legendary Ladies (minus Amy due to wifi issues) dive into Netflix's newest collaboration with Stranger Things actress Millie Bobby Brown. We ask, as always, who is this for? Why wasn't the main character more interesting in a movie that's basically just about one character? Did this movie subvert the damsel in distress trope and at this point does that trope even need to be subverted?
