Hillary Clinton hasn't seen "Wonder Woman" yet, but she definitely wants to, because she sees some parallels between the movie and her own life.
"No, I haven't seen 'Wonder Woman' yet, but I'm going to, in part because it's directed by the fabulous Patty Jenkins," Clinton said in a video address at the Women in Film's Crystal + Lucy Awards on Tuesday. "But something tells me that a movie about a strong, powerful woman fighting to save the world from a massive international disaster is right up my alley."
