On The Game
''On the Game'' (also known as Sex Through the Ages) is a 1974 British film directed by Stanley Long. It was a dramatised documentary about prostitution. The film was researched and written by Suzanne Mercer. Mercer spent two years researching it. Cast *LLoyd Lamble as Gladstone *Gloria Walker as Jenny *Olive McFarland as Mrs Dubery Production Mercer said, "Had I lived in 16th century Italy, or in the 1860's in France I probably would have been a courtesan ... I don’t think ''On the Game'' is anti-feminist ... In my view, no woman need be oppressed or repressed. I’m a chick, married for seven years, and I lead an independent life. I work in a very tough business.” Reception One critic said the film "covers much the same territory" as Mercer and Long's earlier ''Naughty!'' "though with rather less humour... the lighting is so poor as to enforce a squint throughout." Another called it "an informative and entertaining film."

Germaine Greer
Germaine Greer (; born 29 January 1939) is an Australian writer and public intellectual, regarded as one of the major voices of the radical feminist movement in the latter half of the 20th century. Specializing in English and women's literature, she has held academic positions in England at the University of Warwick and Newnham College, Cambridge, and in the United States at the University of Tulsa. Based in the United Kingdom since 1964, she has divided her time since the 1990s between Queensland, Australia, and her home in Essex, England. Greer's ideas have created controversy ever since her first book, ''The Female Eunuch'' (1970), made her a household name. An international bestseller and a watershed text in the feminist movement, it offered a systematic deconstruction of ideas such as womanhood and femininity, arguing that women were forced to assume submissive roles in society to fulfil male fantasies of what being a woman entailed. Greer's subsequent work has focused o ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
