I'll be sharing in this thread throughout the month, but other film lovers are invited to contribute as well. If you do, please share about one or 2 women directors at a time in any given post. And please include a little info to help people learn about & explore their work.
Today - Day 3 of the 7th Annual #DirectedbyWomen Worldwide Film Viewing Party - I'll be sharing about women directors whose first names begin with "A".
I like to help people get on a first name basis with women directors. Feel free to join in.

So this month's themed film viewing will be American films from 1930 -1934 as part of @FilmFan1971's #PreCodeApril initiative. Expect lots of gangsters, sex and scandal!
Born Reckless (1930, John Ford)
Part-Gangster, part-WW1 movie + a few musical numbers thrown in & all in 76 mins! A judge gives gangster Louis (Edmund Lowe) the choice of prison or war, chooses war. On his return he opens a nightclub & gets caught up in crime again. #PreCodeApril

The Doorway to Hell (1930, Archie Mayo)
Louie (Lew Ayres) a ruthless gangster tries to go straight after getting married but gets sucked back in. His right-hand-man Mileaway (James Cagney) tries to help. Cagney's charisma is electric, this was his 2nd screen role. #PreCodeApril
