Movie About Barbies
I just watched a short (53 minute) documentary by Susan Stern called Barbie Nation: An Unauthorized Tour. The film covers body issues, consumerism, queerness, identity, gender, and, what really stands out for me, the role of childhood dreams. Every Barbie-related story and articulation, introduced through interviews and the filmmaker's narration, was fascinating. Incredible!! Here is the link to the movie at Evergreen's library which will have its copy back as soon as I return it this week. And here is the link for it on the IMDB.
