Backwards and in Heels: The Past, Present and Future of Women Working in Film by Alicia Malone

4.0

A great overview of women working in Hollywood through the years. It doesn’t delve too far into each of the women featured in the book but gives a great succinct summary of their careers and how that has influenced others and impacted the industry. You can really feel Alicia Malone’s passion with the way she writes about these incredible women which I loved. This book has also definitely inspired me to go and do further research into some of the figures that I didn’t know a lot about and it’s definitely added so many more movies to my watchlist! Overall it’s a great read for film geeks and anyone looking to learn a little more about women working in the film industry.
