A new publication on the actress and star Julie Christie has been published as part of the BFI's 'Film Stars' series. This monograph traces Christie's career from the free-spirited heroine of Darling (1965) to the feminist icon of Sally Potter's The Gold Diggers (1983) and beyond. Combining close reading with archival scholarship this study reveals the extent of Christie's creative involvement in the production process and her support for feminist film-makers and feminist politics. Bringing Christie out of the shadow of male auteurs and restoring the actress to her rightful place in film history, this study addresses important questions about how women's creative contributions to cinema are recognised, rewarded and archived.

Kind regards
