By Rebecca Martin Fagerholm| Cinema Femme@ It’s wonderful to meet someone like Marya E. Gates whose mission is so closely aligned with that of Cinema Femme. She has spent well over a decade using her platforms, including at RogerEbert.com, to champion the vital work of female filmmakers. Now she has released her first book, Cinema Her Way: Visionary Female Directors in Their Own Words, which features her in-depth interviews with 19 great directors, two of which we’ve spoken with at our site, Isabel Sandoval and Lizzie Borden.
In the Direction of Healing: Kat Blade, Danyelle Monson, Jordan Rivers and Cara Winter on “Cottage Grove”
By Rebecca Martin Fagerholm| Cinema Femme@ Sometimes the most meaningful interactions can take place in the unlikeliest of locations. Consider the central relationship in George Ellzey Jr.’s riveting short film, “Cottage Grove,” between a young man, Emmanuel (Patrick Agata), and his father, Senior (Sean Blake), who has suffered a stroke. The film’s action takes place primarily in the parking lot of a store, as the father and son start to forge a much-needed connection.
By Rebecca Martin Fagerholm| Cinema Femme@ While growing up, one of my heroes was Amelia Earhart. She defied expectations by attempting to fly around the world. Rumors were that she had disappeared into the Bermuda Triangle, but apparently no one has seen her since that day she disappeared in 1937. There is so much missing about her story that I would have loved to have learned about as an adult.
