Quoting Barbara GMX <barbara.kapu...@gmx.at>:
... I am interested in alternatives to the standard and classic structures of women as victims (even if they are the ones committing the murder,…) or of male/female relationships,..
I don't usually reply to queries such as this, in part because of what is for me the problematic nature of the search for subject matter whose description, the searcher implies, already suggests meanings. But for that reason, I would suggest Russ Meyer's 1965 exploitation film, the cult classic "Faster Pussycat! Kill@ Kill!" These physically strong ladies definitely "kill, kill," but is this a film about female strength, or does it serve up "strong" women for the fetishistic enjoyment of the fantasizing male?
Like many of Meyer's films, it does have an "experimental" beginning, in this case abstract images of optical soundtracks, first one, then more, seen on the screen...
