The New Hollywood era of American cinema is typically understood as an era of genius, maverick male auteurs. Obscured and marginalized by that framework, which holds in both popular discourse and scholarship, is the vital role that women’s creative labor played in shaping American filmmaking of the 1970s. Including chapters on film history, film texts, and the decade’s film theory and criticism, Women and New Hollywood draws attention to the rich and varied work produced by women in the era, as well as to the considerable barriers they faced. The collection focuses on women working both in and beyond the Hollywood film industry, reconceptualizing New Hollywood by bringing it into dialogue and tension with other American cinemas of the 1970s. Finally, it challenges the auteur paradigm that has dominated conceptions of the era’s film authorship, incorporating attention not only to women directors but also writers, producers, editors, and stars.
