This week, we’ll view and discuss the film entitled “She’s Beautiful When She’s Angry.”
Reference specific scenes from the films to support your answers! Reply to a classmate’s post in ways that add to the dialogue about modern feminism as illustrated in the films with specific examples. If you find relevance in readings thus far or “American Women’s History: A Very Short Introduction, you may add them. But you should be able to answer based on viewing the film.

1. After viewing the documentary: what was ‘new to you’ history or information about the women’s movement? Identify and discuss at least 2 ‘new to you’ elements with examples from the film/s.
2. What was strength of the women’s movement and what was a weakness that you observed in the account of the movement during the 1960s & 1970s covered by the documentary? Please provide specific examples from the film/s.
4. Consider the newsreel recording of the political play, “She’s Beautiful When She’s Angry.” As a historian, what do you think this primary source shows about radical feminism in 1969? For whom might this play be instructive and politicizing? For whom might it be too radical? Does anything in the play still speak to today’s college students (however you might define this group)? Provide specific examples from the play and its preparation or the voiceover narration in the film.
