Who were the first women in film? In this episode we dive into the history of early film production and the people who made revolutionary changes to the industry. Janine explains the first motion camera, the first narrative film, the lives of Alice Guy-Blache, Louis Weber, Frances Marion and the incredible Dorothy Arzner. There is also a very lively discussion about the first ever talkie, the Jazz Singer.
