“Film viewing will never be the same after reading Jones’s insightful look at the reality of being female in Tinseltown.”—Publishers Weekly

“A must-read textbook for every introductory film class. Moreover, it’s a superb resource for anyone interested in issues of gender equality in American media.”—Jan Eliasberg, veteran film and television director and writer
