From the late 1800s through the late 1920s women were a major force in filmmaking.  They were producers, directors, screenwriters and editors.  They were innovative in not only storytelling but in new methods of filmmaking.

Then the Wall Street backed men saw the potential of big business and forced the independent studios of the day (many owned by women) out of business.

This episode is about the women who made Hollywood and how they were pushed out of the industry.

Also, in this episode we set the record straight about Marion Davies.

Join Kit and Sherlock for the history of women in the early development of Hollywood!
