From Classical Hollywood to alt-Nollywood, mumblegore to J-horror, this book offers a tiny global snapshot of the vast number of women who have worked in the creation of dark and spooky movies for well over a century, both behind and in front of the camera, and in films both widely known and comparatively obscure. Featuring a selected filmography of over 700 feature films directed or co-directed by women, this book also features interviews with Rutanya Alda, Tara Anaïse, Tonjia Atomic, Anna Biller, Axelle Carolyn, Aislinn Clarke, BJ Colangelo, Mattie Do, Julia Ducournau, Jordan Hall, Catherine Hardwicke, Katherine Kean, Karen Lam, Izzy Lee, Barbara Magnolfi, Marsha Mason, Donna McRae, Patrushkha Mierzwa, Hannah Neurotica, Alexandra Paul, Isabel Peppard, Cassandra 'Elvira' Peterson, Debbie Rochon, Mia'Kate Russell, Gigi Saul Guerrero, Elizabeth Shepherd, Jen and Sylvia Soska, Brinke Stevens, Barbie Wilde and Silvana Zancolò. -- Book jacket ISBN: 9781629333878 More info

In doing so, it explores an array of often hidden ways women in Australia have creatively worked with film. Beyond the Silver Screen examines film in a broad sense, considering feature filmmaking alongside government documentaries and political films. It also focuses on women's work regulating films and supporting film culture through organising film societies and workshops to encourage female filmmakers. As such, it tells a new narrative of Australian film history. Beyond the Silver Screen reveals the variety of roles film has in Australian society. It presents film as a medium of creative and political expression, which women have engaged with in diverse ways throughout the twentieth century.

book		Exploring the Barriers and Opportunities for Independent Women Filmmakers / research by Stacy L. Smith, Katherine Pieper, Marc Choueiti University of Southern California, 2013. Call No: 451-02 SMI Author: Pieper, Katherine; Choueiti, Marc; Smith, Stacy L. Source: US Publisher: University of Southern California PubDate: 2013 PhysDes: 43p. : ill. ; 30cm Subject: WOMEN FILM WORKERS; WOMEN FILMMAKERS; WOMEN AND THE CINEMA; WOMEN DIRECTORS; WOMEN, FILMS MADE BY Summary: "The purpose of this research is to examine how females are faring in American independent film. Studies have been conducted in the past on women in the mainstream U.S film industry, but little research has yet been done in the U.S independent film arena. To this end, we developed a research strategy with a two-prong approach. First, we quantitatively document the involvement of female content creators of U.S films at the Sundance Film Festival, assessing the gender of 11,197 directors, writers, producers, cinematographers, and editors across 820 films classified as U.S narratives (534 films) or documentaries (286 films) between 2002 and 2012. The second prong documents the qualitative experiences of female filmmakers through interviews with emerging and seasoned content creators as well as key industry gate-keepers. Here, we surveyed 51 individuals to unpack the specific obstacles that face female directors and producers in the independent film arena. We also assessed participants' perceptions of opportunities that may increase women's involvement behind the camera" -- taken from the Executive Summary Notes: This research was commissioned by the Sundance Insitute and Women in Film Los Angeles thorugh their 'Women Filmmakers Initiative'.

book		Sofia Coppola : the politics of visual pleasure / Anna Backman Rogers Oxford: Berghahn Books, [2019]. Call No: 81COP BAC Author: Backman Rogers, Anna Source: US Place: New York; Oxford Publisher: Berghahn Books PubDate: [2019] PhysDes: 177 pages : illustrations ; 23 cm Subject: WOMEN, FILMS MADE BY; WOMEN AND THE CINEMA; WOMEN DIRECTORS; WOMEN IN FILMS; FEMINISM AND THE CINEMA; CRITICISM; USA; COPPOLA, SOFIA; VIRGIN SUICIDES, THE (US, Sofia Coppola, 2000); BEGUILED, THE (US, Sofia Coppola, 2017); LOST IN TRANSLATION (US, Sofia Coppola, 2003); SOMEWHERE (US/UK/IT/JA, Sofia Coppola, 2010); MARIE ANTOINETTE (US, Sofia Coppola, 2006); BLING RING, THE (US/UK/G/FR, Sofia Coppola, 2013) Summary: "All too often, the movies of Sofia Coppola have been dismissed as "all style, no substance." But such an easy caricature, as this engaging and accessible survey of Coppola's oeuvre demonstrates, fundamentally misconstrues what are rich, ambiguous, meaningful films. Drawing on insights from feminist philosophy and psychology, the author here takes an original approach to Coppola, exploring vital themes from the subversion of patriarchy in The Virgin Suicides to the "female gothic" in The Beguiled. As Rogers shows, far from endorsing a facile and depoliticized postfeminism, Coppola's films instead deploy beguilement, mood, and pleasure in the service of a robustly feminist philosophy." - taken from back cover.

The emergence of a globalized network of film festivals has enabled these young directors to make and circulate films that are changing the aesthetics and politics of art house cinema and challenging feminist genealogies. Extending formal analysis to the production and reception contexts of a variety of feature films, White explores how women filmmakers are both implicated in and critique gendered concepts of authorship, taste, genre, national identity, and human rights.
