, was born in 1994; she is an actress. The couple divorced in 2001.
Reception
Her work, according to the critic
bell hooks, "seduces and excites audiences with its uncritical portrayal of sexism and misogyny. Reviewers and audiences alike seem to assume that Campion's gender, as well as her breaking of traditional boundaries that inhibit the advancement of women in film, indicate that her work expresses a feminist standpoint." Accordingly, Campion's work has received praise from other critics. In V.W. Wexman's ''Jane Campion: Interviews'' (1999), critic
David Thomson describes Campion "as one of the best young directors in the world today." In Sue Gillett's "More Than Meets The Eye: The Mediation of Affects in Jane Campion's ''Sweetie''", Campion's work is described as "perhaps the fullest and truest way of being faithful to the reality of experience"; by utilizing the "unsayable" and "unseeable", she manages to catalyze audience speculation. Campion's films tend to gravitate around themes of gender politics, such as seduction and female sexual power. This has led some to label Campion's body of work as feminist; however, Rebecca Flint Marx argues that "while not inaccurate,
he feminist labelfails to fully capture the dilemmas of her characters and the depth of her work."
