I am working on a cultural history of stress in the United States,
especially as it concerns women and as it is imbricated with popular feminist
movements. I am interested in U.S. films that have to do
with women and work (any type of paid labor and/or housework) and that
discuss or thematize stress, boredom, nervousness, etc. For instance, 9 TO
5 and Valley of the Dolls. I need titles from films dating back to the 1920s,
but my focus is on the 1960s through the present.
