From British soldier Flora Sandes to the famed World War II Night
Witches of the Soviet Air Force, women across the globe have
stepped up to defend their countries during every major and minor
conflict of the twentieth century, and filmmakers have long
attempted to capture their stories. This book analyzes these
military women's portrayals in world cinema, examining movies from
multiple countries including Israel, the United Kingdom, Italy, the
United States, Japan and more. It includes theatrical releases,
direct-to-video productions, and made-for-television films.
Chapters organize films by decade produced, and topics covered
include the women's sexuality, maternal and marital status;
leadership skills; actual jobs performed; and the accuracy of
depiction. It also discusses how each film reflects the
contemporary social issues of the nation in which it was produced.
