Hi Eileen,
My all time favorite film by a woman director:
Jeanne Dielman, 23 Quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles by Chantal Akerman...a
masterpiece, in my opinion.
I would also include:
Decline of Western Civilisation Part 1 - Penelope Spheeris
Swept Away - Lina Wertmuller
Invisible Adversaries - Valie Export
My New Gun - Stacy Cochran
Cleo from 5 to 7 - Agnes Varda
Vagabond - Agnes Varda
Fuses - Carolee Schneeman
Mickey and Nicky - Elaine May
An Agel at My Table - Jane Campion
Off the top of my head...I'm sure I am forgetting something.
There you go,
