Quote:
"Creative partnerships established in the 1930s, for example that between [Evelyn] Spice and Marion Grierson, laid the foundations for sisterly comradeship. [...] Letters between Spice and Grierson reveal a shared obligation to one another as friends and as women: they helped one another find placement on film projects while committing never to do one another out of a film."
-- Jo Fox
