« I was a curator-in-the-making who would never have presumed to stage a women's film festival if not for a fortuitous phone call from the Chicago Tribune's film critic, Gene Siskel, just back from two weeks of Army Reserve duty in Washington, D.C. While there, he'd checked out a women's film festival and was staggered by what he saw: a scene in Mireille Dansereau's Dream Life that showed a teenage pickup scene from the girl's point of view instead of the boy's. Bowled over by the difference a woman behind the camera could make, he'd filed a column for the Tribune announcing that 'it gave me an appetite for more films conceived and shot from the female point of view. Not because they necessarily would be better, but because they would be different.' »
