"Drawing on the work of philiosopher Luce Irigaray, this groundbreaking study intervenes in the debate around women and film. Women's films can be seen as providing a new arena for the exploration of sexual difference and patterns of representation and spectatorship. This timely book analyses films such as The Piano, Orlando, Antonia's Line and The Silences of the Palace to make the case that a feminine cinematics is now emerging through the scene of women's filmmaking. Caroline Bainbridge moves beyond the framework of textual analysis by making a compelling case for the importance of contextual elements in contemporary women's cinema, foregrounding issues of production, direction and reception."--Jacket.
