For Women in Film Wednesday, we'd like to share Christina's interview with cinematographer, burlesque dancer and general bad ass Marie Ilene!

Back in April we reviewed the documentary Bombshells and Dollies (see below or click the link to read it) and had the pleasure of speaking with Marie. She shared with us highlights from her career in film, her connection to the rockabilly-pin up scene, her views on body positivity and feminism, discussed her burlesque dancing, and much more.

Dollhouse The Eradication of Female Subjectivity from American Popular Culture FemFilmFans

Were you a Britney Spears fan? Or were you more into Lindsay Lohan? What about Junie Spoons? Never heard of her? Well, we think you should. Junie Spoons is a child pop star who fulfills all the Britney-Lindsay-and-co. clichés - the sex tape, the drugs and alcohol, the fall from grace, the days in court - but in a way you've never seen it before. 

Nicole Brending's scathing feminist mockumentary might be obscene, but so is the way we continue to treat women. Oops, we did it again? Not good enough. The misogynistic eradication of female subjectivity in American pop culture is one of the many ways women have historically been chewed up and spit out for the pleasure, obsession and bewilderment of all. Brending shows the folly in this in a film that definitely won't leave you cold. Click on the button above to read Christina's review of Dollhouse​.
