Explores how Armstrong's films re-work conventions about literary
adaptation, biography and realist storytelling Examines Armstrong's
work in light of new media scholarship and philosophies, including
feminist cinematic ethics Situates Armstrong's achievements in the
context of Australian film policies and history Provides an
examination of never-before-studied elements, including Armstrong's
short films Includes a never-before-utilised oral history project
with Armstrong A commercially successful Australian director of
over eighteen feature films and documentaries, including My
Brilliant Career (1979), Gillian Armstrong is an early, notable
example of a woman director connecting with mass audiences.
Armstrong's films are unique in their aesthetic expression and in
the ethical relationships that they depict, framed through the
language of gender inclusivity and due in part to her foregrounding
of original, complex and nuanced female characters. This important
book fills a gap in the literature on women screen practitioners
and is a long overdue response to demands for new insight into the
work of this significant director.
