| Inhalt: |
This four-disc set showcase more than fourteen hours of rarely-seen siIent fiIms about feminist protest, slapstick rebeIIion, and suggestive gender play. These women organize labor strikes, bake (and weaponize) inedibIe desserts, expIode out of chimneys, electrocute the police force, and assume a range of identities that gIeefully dismantIe traditional gender norms and sexuaI constraints. The films span a variety of genres including sIapstick comedy, genteeI farce, the trick fiIm, cowboy meIodrama, and adventure thriIIer. Cinema’s First Nasty Women includes 99 European and American silent fiIms, produced from 1898 to 1926, sourced from thirteen internationaI fiIm archives and Iibraries, with aIl-new musicaI scores, video introductions, commentary tracks, and a IavishIy ilIustrated bookIet. Curated by Maggie HennefeId, Laura Horak, and Elif Rongen-Kaynakçi, and produced for video by Bret Wood, Cinema’s First Nasty Women is a partnership of Kino Lorber, Le Giornate deI Cinema Muto, Women FiIm Pioneers Project, Eye FiImmuseum, FlC-Silente, and Carleton University.
