Next time I go to town I'll have to get it from the library.

This group is great. We had a thread about favorite feminist films, and in that thread were some films I hadn't known about, so I rented some of them, and all of them were really good. I especially loved Whale Rider.

Thanks for the tip on The Female Man.
