Summary
""Women stars in Hollywood were invariably in one of two categories," said director Otto Preminger. "One group was made up of women who were exploited by men, and the other, much smaller group was composed of women who survived by acting like men." This study of misogyny describes how female stars were maltreated by a sexist studio system"-- Provided by publisher.
