She's Beautiful When She's Angry
92 min.
Utilizing a mix of archival footage and interviews, this film provides an overview of second-wave feminism and also shows the movement's distinctions and contradictions. Seizing upon the momentum of other social movements in the ‘60s, women came together and rebelled against their limited options - career-wise, education-wise, etc. As Susan Brownmiller proclaimed, “Change happens because radicals force it! Regular people - not the Supreme Court - give us rights.”
