The Gold Diggers. by Potter, Sally,film director.; Laffont, Colette,actor.; Gale, David,actor.; Christie, Julie,actor.; Women Make Movies (Firm),dst; Kanopy (Firm),dst;
Colette Laffont, David Gale, Julie ChristieOriginally produced by Women Make Movies in 1983.THE GOLD DIGGERS is the ground-breaking, exquisitely photographed early feminist film by Sally Potter, director of Orlando and The Tango Lesson."Drawing from the same well of avant-garde anti-structure as enfant terrible Jean-Luc Godard and playwright Bertolt Brecht, Sally Potter’s whip-smart THE GOLD DIGGERS is brimming with cultural and political signifiers that combine to form a singular work in the feminist counter cinema space. Employing an all-female crew to shoot, compose, and design this proto-Lynchian world of romantic surrealism, the British filmmaker establishes herself as a trailblazer in this “search for the secret of [her] own transformation.” Babette Mangolte’s career-best cinematography elucidates a visual and thematic sendup of silent comedies, Depression-era musicals, and European arthouse cinema in an elegant, non-narrative ode to — and critique of — traditional Hollywood moviemaking."- UCLA Film & Television ArchiveMode of access: World Wide Web.
