Abstract

Review and discussion of the making of the Connie Field's film The Life and Times of Rosie the Riveter. "The modern women’s movement has encouraged women to act, think, write, read, create and inspire. Connie Field’s movie is not the first feminist documentary and it won’t be the last but it is surely one of the most successful. It stands as a strong statement for equality and as such should have an important influence on the trade union movement."
