Chick Flicks by B. Ruby Rich


A few months ago I checked out a bunch of books on women and film from the library, Chick Flicks: Theories and Memories of the Feminist Film Movement by B. Ruby Rich being one of them. Since I was reading through a bunch of books at once (as usual) I am not sure which one is which, but recently a group of feminist readers in Olympia have started reading this one together and holding illicit late night screenings downtown. Last night we saw Das Blaue Licht (d. Leni Riefenstahl). If you'd like you read along, Kanako is in charge and I hear there might be another blog starting up...

here is the address to the Chick Flicks reading group blog. It's two days old... so give us a min to get it together.

It's great you're reading this. Laura Mulvey was a huge influence on me in the '80s.
