| I saw it last week, and found it illuminating. I enjoyed the
interviews with the woman who was involved in union orgainization,
and 2 black women who worked in war plants.
I found it interesting to observe the different kinds of propaganda
during and after the war. "We need you (wonderful, skilled) women!"
to having a woman doctor make ominous predictions about The Future
if women keep working!
In a snippet of interviews asking women why they work in the war
plants, one woman actually said , "I'm an Old Maid..." (I'll let
you watch to get the rest). I honestly didn't know whether to laugh
or cry!
I'd recommend it.

| I saw it last week, too, and I also enjoyed it a lot. I couldn't
believe that woman who said, "I'm an old maid.."! At least we don't
have old maids anymore! It was very interesting but in a way it
was sad, too, to hear some of the different accounts of the women.
