The Glorias is a biographical drama film directed by Julie Taymor and released in 2020. It is based on the memoir My Life on the Road by Gloria Steinem. The film follows Steinem's life from her early days as a journalist in the 1960s to her rise as an activist and feminist leader in the women's rights movement.
The movie features multiple actresses portraying Steinem at different stages of her life, including Ryan Kiera Armstrong as young Gloria, Lulu Wilson as teenage Gloria, Alicia Vikander as Gloria in her 20s and 30s, and Julianne Moore as Gloria in her 40s and beyond.

It also delves into her relationships with fellow activists and feminist leaders, including Dorothy Pitman Hughes (played by Janelle Monรกe) and Bella Abzug (played by Bette Midler).
Throughout the film, Steinem travels across the country and around the world, speaking out on behalf of women's rights and fighting against injustices such as gender discrimination, reproductive rights, and violence against women. The Glorias ultimately celebrates Steinem's achievements as a pioneering feminist and serves as a tribute to her enduring legacy.
