Nice piece on the work, trials and perils of women artists in America. While the types of personalities presented here were about what you'd expect, the film was easily carried by the quality of the work shown. It was often startling, original, world-class work and this film should help bring it to a much larger audience.
Part of the story is the price exacted from these women for pursuing their muse. It can be high-poverty, loss of family, social disapproval. The ones who stick with it must. It's up to those of us watching to judge for ourselves whether or not it's worth it.
Good stuff
