Joyce balancing motherhood with being a filmmaker / the scene where she gives birth makes me beam! it's after all human nature to smile at life... @cc
70年代初美国女性主义纪录片的两个方向均有涉及，一是以女性整体的身份陈诉被遮蔽的社会问题，二是从自我出发的“个人即政治”，前者揭露作为第二性在现实内的挫折遭遇，后者聚焦个人内心的想法感觉。也都在拍摄者-被摄者的性别相同中，制造共性连接，进行反男性电影/穆尔维所称凝视电影，亦或直接说主流电影的实践。肖普拉也通过使用定格和过去影像与旁白的叠加，开辟出与同类电影相异的内容，那历时性的回顾，身边女性友人或亲属的变化，感性的展示出。通过女性的自我言说，她也反驳了布拉哈格和克拉莫对于生育的呈现，将父亲/男性修饰镜头中诗意表达外的痛苦煎熬，以及某种夺取表达了出来，并确定这一过程的绝对主体，不是婴儿，而是母亲。这一纪录片运动某种程度上成为阿克曼的铺垫，《让娜·迪尔曼》是这时对真实介入的艺术化表达和态度抒发。
“Without her, I can be a person.” I’m so sure that I’m gonna make films instead of making children.
