Women in Defense (1941)

Directed by John Ford this short film is written by Eleanor Roosevelt and narrated by Katherine Hepburn. We see women taking up various jobs to help with the war effort.

A simple piece of propaganda this film is notable for those involved with its production. No doubt more interesting as a historical record this is still a fairly decent watch. Somewhat dry but fairly entertaining.

3/5
