SUMMARY:FREE Film Screening: Iron Jawed Angels
DESCRIPTION:Katja von Garnier's Iron Jawed Angels tells the remarkable and little-known story of a group of passionate and dynamic young women\, led by Alice Paul (Hilary Swank) and her friend Lucy Burns (Frances O'Connor)\, who put their lives on the line to fight for American women's right to vote.\n\n\n\nSwank and O'Connor head an outstanding female ensemble\, with Julia Ormond\, Molly Parker\, Laura Fraser\, Brooke Smith and Vera Farmiga as a rebel band of young women seeking their seat at the table\; and such cinematic icons as Lois Smith\, Margo Martindale\, and Anjelica Huston as the steely older generation of suffragettes.\n\n\n\nThis true story has startling parallels to today\, as the young activists struggle with issues such as the challenges of protesting a popular President during wartime and the perennial balancing act between love and career. Utilizing a pulsing soundtrack\, vivid colors\, and a freewheeling camera\, Katja von Garnier's ("bandits") driving filmmaking style shakes up the preconceptions of the period film and gives history a vibrant contemporary energy and relevance.
