Coming to theatres tomorrow, Friday, December 5: SHE’S BEAUTIFUL WHEN SHE’S ANGRY
Mary Dore’s exploration of the early years of women’s liberation premiered at Sarasota this Spring. It has gone on to screen at DOC NYC, Virginia, St Louis, Milwaukee, Cucalorus, and IFF Boston, among others.
I previously wrote about the film for DOC NYC’s program, saying:
Through a treasure trove of archival material and profiles of several outspoken pioneers of the women’s movement, SHE’S BEAUTIFUL WHEN SHE’S ANGRY revisits the remarkable eruption of activism in the late 1960s and early 1970s that signaled the arrival of modern feminism. Mary Dore’s vibrant and inspirational film is at once a far-ranging look back at our vital past and a timely reminder of the need for vigilance in the face of current reactionary legislation that would restrict women’s rights.
