Cash and Carrie

It's not the most obvious combination - a red floral dress, orange purse and zebra-print pumps. They're Manolos, of course, because this is Carrie Bradshaw we're talking about.

Review: 'Sex and the City'

One of the few things you may have heard in advance about the long-awaited, already-buzzed-over-to-death movie version of "Sex and the City" is that it runs roughly two hours longer than an average episode of the HBO series. This much, we're allowed to disclose, is true.

MOVIES

'Sex and the City' appeal

HOLLYWOOD—Hollywood worships so-called four-quadrant films: movies that draw males and females both young and old. "Sex and the City" might appeal to only a single audience slice, but its following among older women already is so robust that the film could soon prove its doubters wrong.

'Sex and the City' movie may lack wide appeal

Hollywood worships so-called four-quadrant films: movies that draw males and females both young and old. "Sex and the City" might appeal to only a single audience slice, but its following among older women already is so robust that the film could soon prove its doubters wrong.

What were 'Sex and the City' writers thinking?

Much like "The Mary Tyler Moore Show" of the 1970s, which chronicled a fictional single, career woman navigating love, friendship and fulfillment, its contemporary counterpart, "Sex and the City," has utterly influenced a cross-generation of women. Sure, its idealized narrative requires a gargantuan suspension of disbelief (leading gal Carrie Bradshaw, a New York City-based freelance writer, can, for instance, fund a $40,000 designer shoe collection and a closet of haute couture), but we are rooting for Carrie. We want her to make it after all.
