    WMC INVESTIGATION: 10-YEAR ANALYSIS OF GENDER & OSCAR NOMINATIONS womensmediacenter.com @womensmediacntr WOMEN’S MEDIA CENTER ABOUT THE WOMEN’S MEDIA CENTER In 2005, Jane Fonda, Robin Morgan, and Gloria Steinem founded the Women’s Media Center (WMC), a progressive, nonpartisan, nonproft organization endeav- oring to raise the visibility, viability, and decision-making power of women and girls in media and thereby ensuring that their stories get told and their voices are heard. To reach those necessary goals, we strategically use an array of interconnected channels and platforms to transform not only the media landscape but also a cul- ture in which women’s and girls’ voices, stories, experiences, and images are nei- ther suffciently amplifed nor placed on par with the voices, stories, experiences, and images of men and boys. Our strategic tools include monitoring the media; commissioning and conducting research; and undertaking other special initiatives to spotlight gender and racial bias in news coverage, entertainment flm and television, social media, and other key sectors. Our publications include the book “Unspinning the Spin: The Women’s Media Center Guide to Fair and Accurate Language”; “The Women’s Media Center’s Media Guide to Gender Neutral Coverage of Women Candidates + Politicians”; “The Women’s Media Center Media Guide to Covering Reproductive Issues”; “WMC Media Watch: The Gender Gap in Coverage of Reproductive Issues”; “Writing Rape: How U.S. Media Cover Campus Rape and Sexual Assault”; “WMC Investigation: 10-Year Review of Gender & Emmy Nominations”; and the Women’s Media Center’s annual WMC Status of Women in the U.S.

No Place like Home: Re-writing “Home” and Re-locating Lesbianism in Emma Donoghue’s Stir-Fry and Hood By Emma Young1 Abstract This article considers contemporary novelist Emma Donoghue’s early novels, Stir-Fry (1994) and Hood (1995), and argues that these works contribute to a re-defining of the home space in relation to lesbian sexuality. I draw on theoretical arguments from the social sciences, feminist, gender and sexuality studies, and literary criticism to reveal how an inter-disciplinary approach to Donoghue’s novels illuminates a more nuanced interpretation of their depiction of home space that ensures a ‘home’ for lesbianism is (re)located.

  • Free Novels Into Film Pdf
    FREE NOVELS INTO FILM PDF George BlueStone | 264 pages | 20 Mar 2003 | JOHNS HOPKINS UNIVERSITY PRESS | 9780801873867 | English | Baltimore, MD, United States Books Made into Movies ( books) From the page to the silver screen. Like we said, a rum bunch. All, however, are utterly brilliant. A truly fantastic film of a fantastic book. The cast is superb too. And both Laura Dern and Timothee Chalamet shine in supporting roles. This was not the case with Fight Club. It was visceral, inflammatory and, above all, entertaining. A brilliant book, and film. Kesey claimed to have hated it, Novels into Film never allegedly never seeing it. Whatever, the film is hypnotic from beginning to end. This archetypal coming-of-age movie from Rob Reiner began as a Stephen King novella in the same collection as the tales that were later adapted as Apt Pupil and The Shawshank Redemption. Although as American as apple pie lots of which is regurgitated in the filmthe universal themes of childhood, loss of innocence and looking back upon such times with acceptable nostalgia strike a chord with everyone. Unsurprisingly, therefore, the film stays faithful to the manner and quality of the book. Some backstories are eliminated, while others appear in The Godfather II. The ending of the film is actually more gloomy than the book. But both film and book complement each other perfectly. The long- gestating sequel successfully recreates the magic. You are more likely to know Room the film rather than the book by Emma Donoghue. And its story is a grim one. A woman is held captive in suburbia for seven years, and raises her son in this prison.

  • Into the Forest
    INTO THE FOREST WRITTEN AND DIRECTED BY Patricia Rozema BASED ON THE NOVEL BY Jean Hegland a BRON STUDIOS and RHOMBUS MEDIA production in association with DAS FILMS, SELAVY, VIE ENTERTAINMENT and CW MEDIA FINANCE STARRING Ellen Page Evan Rachel Wood Max Minghella Callum Keith Rennie Wendy Crewson 101 MINUTES PR Contacts US Sara Serlen, ID PR E: [email protected] / P: 212.774.6148 / C: 917-239.0829 Canada Dana Fields, TARO PR E: [email protected] / P: 416.930.1075 / C: 416.930.1075 SYNOPSIS In the not-too-distant future, two ambitious young women, Nell and Eva, live with their father in a lovely but run-down home up in the mountains somewhere on the West Coast. Suddenly the power goes out; no one knows why. No electricity, no gasoline. Their solar power system isn’t working. Over the following days, the radio reports a thousand theories: technical breakdowns, terrorism, disease and uncontrolled violence across the continent. Then, one day, the radio stops broadcasting. Absolute silence. Step by ominous step, everything that Nell, a would-be academic, and Eva, a hard working contemporary dancer, have come to rely on is stripped away: parental protection, information, food, safety, friends, lovers, music -- all gone. They are faced with a world where rumor is the only guide, trust is a scarce commodity, gas is king and loneliness is excruciating. To battle starvation, invasion and despair, Nell and Eva fall deeper into a primitive life that tests their endurance and bond. Ultimately, the sisters must work together to survive and learn to discover what the earth will provide.
