The shoe on the other foot


The Consequences of Feminism (1906)

Directed by Alice Guy-Blache this is an early short film. We see a world where the behaviour of men and women has been flipped.

Working as a nice little mirror to the way society treated women in the period this is a decent watch. Guy-Blache ended up remaking this in America but unfortunately the remake is considered lost. A decent watch, one of the many socially conscious films from the director.

4/5
