Publisher Description:

"Feminisms in the Cinema provides a platform for both women filmmakers and the women who analyze their films." --Bloomsbury Review

"... invaluable... [demonstrates] how gender and genre intersect... how feminisms are flourishing, at home and abroad." --Women's Review of Books

Well-known feminist theorists juxtapose their work with that of women filmmakers. Each writer addresses some aspect of marginality, discussing it as a political strategy and as a challenge to power structures.
