A Woman’s Tale (1991)
A Special Film Screening – This marvellous life-affirming film is one of Australian director Paul Cox’s best.
‘A Woman’s Tale does not sentimentalize its heroine, does not make her cute or lovable or pull any of those other tricks we use to deny the realities of old age. It allows her strong opinions and a skeptical irony, and makes her into one of the great characters of recent movies.’ (Roger Ebert)
Dr. Paula David, noted gerontologist, will speak to the topic ‘Women and Aging: Reclaiming Ourselves. ’ Dr. David currently teaches at the University of Toronto and has worked with women at Baycrest Geriatric Centre.
