From Jan Lisa Huttner (Editor-in-Chief of FF2 Media)
Six films either written &/or directed by women filmmakers opened in Manhattan theatres this week:
- Half the Picture
- Middleground
- Nancy
- Ocean’s 8
- The Valley
- Westwood: Punk, Icon, Activist
Of these six, so far I seen three. Two — Half the Picture and Westwood: Punk, Icon, Activist — are docs. One — Middleground –is a narrative feature.
My Top Pick for June 8th (drumroll please) is Half the Picture, Amy Adrion’s superlative exploration of the ongoing gender imbalance on worldwide movie screens.
