The Women's Happy Time Commune (1972)

Directed by Sheila Paige

Overview

The first all-women Western. Set in a fictional 1850, the movie is about one woman’s attempt to recruit others for an all-women commune.  “..a Warholesque frolic” — Daphne Davis, Women’s Wear Daily ”  Some great comments about women, men and the pros and cons of living with either.” —Women & Film: International Festival, 1973 “A group of wonderfully idiosyncratic women improvise characters close to their real lives and fantasy lives. Funny, ambling, off-handedly lyrical, the film….is above all excellent for sharing warm feelings in a group.” —Ms. magazine

Length 47 minutes
