Welcome to Femme Noir Podcast! We review and analyze movies written by, directed by, or starring women, and discuss their representation on screen and in the industry. We want to offer a space where you can come and feel like you've found your tribe: we know how hard it can be to find like-minded people who share your love of cinema, so we've created this podcast for all of us. We'll be covering everything from the latest blockbusters to indie gems that you might have missed. You can find us on the majority of streaming platforms or listen here on our site! https://shows.acast.com/femme-noir And if this podcast sounds like something you'd like to support, please do consider becoming a patron on Patreon!
