The queerest of superhero origin tales, Professor Marston is based on the life of the man who invented Wonder Woman in the 1940s as ‘propaganda for a new type of woman,’ and the secret long-term polyamorous relationship he had with the two women who inspired him. With an excellent cast, the film seductively imagines the trio’s love story, their link to early feminism and dalliance with sadomasochism.
