“Issues in Feminist Film Criticism” in “Issues In Feminist Film Criticism”
The following selection of books and articles represents feminist film criticism and material on women directors published between the years 1978-1988. In order to avoid duplication and undue length, I have not included individual citations to articles which appeared in special journal issues, which have been anthologized in Issues in Feminist Film Criticism or in the books listed below, or which were later incorporated into books by their authors. Thus, many well-known articles may not appear as separate entries in the following bibliography.
