If she really wants something students have already seen I'd suggest any number of Mad Men episodes. Of course, it's the '60's so there's not a whole lot of subtlety.
Andy Regis University Library From: videolib-boun...@lists.berkeley.edu [mailto:videolib-boun...@lists.berkeley.edu] On Behalf Of Wochna, Lorraine Sent: Wednesday, August 24, 2011 2:28 PM To: videolib@lists.berkeley.edu Subject: [Videolib] recommendation for films Hello CW, I have a faculty member teaching Women and Writing this Fall and she would like to show a film with these parameters: ..maybe a film they have seen before or a more subtle indictment of the sexism faced by both females and males. One of my favorite quotes from an essay is that" while women are seen as sex objects, men are seen as success objects." I guess I am trying to find a film that shows this dynamic. I suggested von Trier, Lynch and Labute (since they always get criticized on these issues). I also suggested Film Noir in general, and of course, Disney films. Other suggestions would be welcome.

VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and distributors.
