3 Women
is one of Robert Altman’s most beautiful-looking and personal films. It is the story of three women: Millie (Shelley Duvall) and Pinky (Sissy Spacek) are attendants at the Desert Hot Springs spa, where they help older patients in and out of mineral baths. The first is self-absorbed and self-assured to the point of delusion. The second, meek and inexperienced, appears smitten by her friend’s poise. Willie (Janice Rule) paints eerie creatures on the bottom of the pool and is pregnant. The main male character of the film is her husband, Edgar (Robert Fortier). According to Altman, amid this strange triangle of shifting female identities, the macho, boozing, womanizing Edgar is sort of a “last man on earth.”
