ENTER YOUR CLASSIC MOVIE ERA!

What is it?

The Cinematic Time Machine: A Feminist Film Club is an online movie club celebrating the movies of yesteryear, but specifically those written, directed, produced by and starring women. We watch a diverse range of classic films and discuss women’s contributions from a feminist perspective.

Our mission is to provide an inclusive space for film enthusiasts to appreciate and recontextualize classic movies through a feminist lens

By showcasing these films and fostering discussions, we aim to bring women's contributions to the cinematic world out of the shadows.

How it works

🍿 Once you join the club, you’ll receive a welcome email containing all the details, and your first pick will arrive within 48 hours. (It takes that long because it’s not automated, I’ll be sending you the email personally.)

🍿 Every quarter we pick a genre to enjoy. Currently, it’s Spooky Season.

🍿 And then on the 1st of each month you will receive a movie choice within that genre carefully selected to highlight one of the amazing women who created or starred in it. The pick will come in a pdf format with links to rent/buy online.

The movie picks and the factsheets are the same as the full version, the only difference is there’s no mid month Mini, no printable recipes cards and no community aspect (so no live watch parties or forum).

What we’re watching:

SPOOKY SEASON

September: I Married a Witch (1942) A cute comedy about a witch who sets out to wreak revenge on the descendants of her persecutor.

October: Arsenic and Old Lace (1944) A dark comedy about a hapless writer returns to his aunts with the happy news that he’s getting married only to find they have a very, very dark secret.

November: Dracula’s Daughter (1936) The sequel to the 1931 classic Dracula, in which his daughter steals his body in a desperate attempt to live as a human.

What Others Say:

“It has inspired me to watch classic films on a more regular basis, and I’m discovering new to me films, too. I would recommend it to anyone interested in adding more film viewing to their life, or who wants to learn more about classic films. A community helps make it happen, and is fun, too!“ - HP, talking about the full club.

Why is it feminist?

Because I am. I can’t separate my belief in equality from the way I view movies so I figured if I want to watch old films from a more modern perspective there must the others who do too. So why not unite and enjoy it together!
