NOTES B/W.

2nd Director Lynne Tillman

The story of Frances Farmer as told also in 'Frances' and

'Will There Really Be A Morning' (see below).

A much harsher film scrutinising the response in the US to

mental health and political commitment. And a look at

women who are both strong willed and independent. This film

promises to produce an argumentative reaction.
