Film 2018
series Women at Work: Labor Activism
Directed by Martin Ritt | 1979
With Sally Field, Beau Bridges, Ron Leibman
An Oscar-winning Sally Field is iconic as the downtrodden Southern textile mill worker who takes a stand (literally) and leads the crusade to unionize her factory. Socially conscious director Martin Ritt (at one time a target of McCarthy's blacklist for his leftist leanings) skillfully balances engaging human drama with a rousing pro-labor message for one of the most empowering movies of the 70s.
