Brainwashed: Sex-Camera-Power (2022)
Must-see documentary tackles the male gaze in cinema
12 January 2023 - 15 out of 41 users found this review helpful.
This insightful, challenging feature-length documentary by veteran independent filmmaker and film school instructor Nina Menkes takes a hard look at the types of camera shots long used by directors and cinematographers to capture women on film. A must-see for anyone interested in gaining a better understanding of the differences in the way women are visually portrayed on screen verses the way men are portrayed and what impact those differences mean to society. The documentary includes many clips from classic and contemporary films as well as interviews with fellow filmmakers, industry professionals, and advocates.
