Product Overview
A transcript of the 2002 ScreenSound Australian Longford Lyell Lecture, delivered by film producer Jan Chapman on the topic 'Some Significant Women in Australian Film - A Celebration and a Cautionary Tale.' Jan Chapman discusses the careers of Gillian Armstrong and Jane Campion, amongst others, and considers the future for Australian women film-makers. 'I remember ... Jane Campion's wild and mad Sweetie climbing a tree desperate to find freedom, looking down on herself as a child, the dreamy little girl who had truth in her heart and no sense of anything in the world that could stop her, and I celebrate the fact that women were able to create those images.'
