A double bonus for the person who started this thread, if s/he is not already aware of it, is Raoul Walsh's "Revolt of Mamie Stover." The bonus comes from an interesting essay about this and other Walsh films, which is included in an anthology called something like "Issues in Feminist Film Criticism." (It's at home, and I'm at work.) If you need more exact information, just post here. I'm sure many folks on this list are familiar with that text. Stephen Brophy
