In Celebration of Women's HERstory month . . .

We will rectify the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences' gross oversight in failing EVER to give an Oscar to any film directed by a woman--something that irks the Media Librarian whenever she thinks about it--by honoring The Three--count 'em--THREE! women ever nominated for Best Director.

We will throw in Barbra Streisand, because her film Prince of Tides was nominated for Best Picture in 1992. Alas, we don't have that title in our collection, but we do have Funny Girl. So, for the rest of March, feel free to borrow that title, or the following three:

Jame Campion's The Piano
Lina Wertmuller's Seven Beauties
Sophia Coppola's Lost in Translation.

The usual conditions apply: borrow one at a time, overnight or over a weekend.
