[Wamvan] Feminist film in Doxa

Tue May 3 22:56:29 PDT 2011

Oh, I just realized that I have seen a Lynn
Hershman-Leeson<http://www.google.ca/url?url=http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0380961/&rct=j&sa=X&ei=aunATc7fOsfhiALm1NypAw&ved=0CB8QggkoADAA&q=Conceiving+Ada&usg=AFQjCNEQKohtZyMX0yrr08oKPZm1y-l1lA&cad=rja>film
before.  It was Conceiving Ada (1997), a fictional film that deals
with
Ada Lovelace, the woman who was the world's first computer programmer.  I
went to see it with a group of women in San Francisco - I forget why I was
there, now.  It was an odd film, but we were so happy to see it together and
talk about it.
