Video Librarian Gives A GIRL LIKE HER 3.5 Stars! | A WMM Release

[Women Make Movies Educate]

Hi All,

I am writing from Women Make Movies, the leading nonprofit distributor of films by and about women. I thought the members of this listserv would be interested to know that our new release, A GIRL LIKE HER, was awarded three and a half stars by the prestigious Video Librarian! This valuable and deeply creative educational resource explores critical issues around reproductive rights, feminism, women’s history and motherhood.

I am posting more info below on A GIRL LIKE HER and its recent review. Please feel free to contact me with any questions, and thanks as always for supporting independent women filmmakers!

**A GIRL LIKE HER Reviewed in Video Librarian!**

"The movie punches up the personal accounts, creating a jaw dropping picture of ‘ideal’ womanhood in an America that existed only 50 years ago." 

"***1/2 Highly Recommended."
-Video Librarian

A GIRL LIKE HER <http://www.wmm.com/filmcatalog/pages/c846.shtml>
>From 1945-73, 1.5 million unmarried young American women, facing enormous social pressures, surrendered babies to adoption. Lacking sex education and easy access to birth control, they were forced into hiding while pregnant and then into “abandoning” their infants. In her latest film, Ann Fessler, Professor of Photography at Rhode Island School of Design, reprises the subject of her award-winning The Girls Who Went Away (National Book Critics Circle; Ballard Book Prize), which Ms. readers named an all-time best feminist book.
