In the end, I didn't quite heart SATC—but I certainly enjoyed this meaningful reunion with its beloved characters and their winning friendships.

>Talk About It

1. What's the driving force/value for each of the four women? What's good and bad about that value? Which do you most relate to and why?
2. What's the motivation for the engagement that occurs in the movie? What does this say about the current state of relationships in our society?
3. In one scene, Miranda tells Steve, "I changed who I was for you." What's positive and negative about that relationship reality?
4. In a couple of scenes, the women wrestle with buying something for themselves versus having their romantic partner buy it for them. There seems to be less value placed on things bought by others. Why is that? Do you agree or disagree with this value system?
5. Carrie is writing a book about what comes after you find love. If you've been married for a while, how would you describe what comes next?
6. How do you feel about the way the two main relationships play out (Carrie and Big, Miranda and Steve)? Do you agree or disagree with the choices these characters make?

The Family Corner

Sex and the City is rated R for strong sexual content, graphic nudity, and language. Take the rating very seriously. There are several scenes with nudity, including a brief glimpse at frontal male nudity, a brief guy-to-guy kiss, and several graphic sex scenes, including a threesome. The language is colorful at times, but not as problematic as the sex and nudity. This isn't a movie for children or teens, and due to the content, not even for some adults.
