Lights! Camera! Alice! by Mara Rockliff


Brilliant, illuminating, inspiring! The story of the first woman filmmaker, Alice Guy-Blaché, is extraordinary. During a time where moving pictures were a new spectacle, this woman had the courage and determination to insert herself into the male-dominated business and tell her stories. The book incorporates a silent-film style of introducing new chapters of the life of Alice, who is a role model for all young women.
