There's lots of threads on great feminist academic books to read but I thought it would be good to drop lowbrow stuff onto this thread of movies/documentaries/ shows that don't make you want to throw stuff at the telly. You know, when you've watched and enjoyed something and it's striking because unlike 99% of stuff it's about women and you want to share it.
I'm happy to set a lowish bar. It doesn't need to be a perfect radfem 10/10. Just good, woman-focused stuff. Don't get caught up on whether it can be critiqued for not being perfect. If you enjoyed it and want to share it, do.
I have just discovered this comedian called Iliza on Netflix. She is cracking, and she is funny and feminist and I'd never even heard of her.
Also Gilmore Girls. Phenomenal script, funny, very very feelgood, the women deliver their lines brilliantly and the men are supporting characters to the fantastic women that the show is about.
