An Evening with Illeana Douglas

An Evening with Illeana  Douglas


Join The Mark Twain House & Museum for a discussion with actress and author Illeana Douglas about her book Jungle Red!: The Making of MGM’s The Women.

A largely forgotten masterpiece, the 1939 film The Women remains a glamorous but stinging satire about women forced by society to be defined by men. In her critically acclaimed new book Jungle Red!: The Making of MGM’s The Women, Illeana Douglas restores this classic motion picture to its rightful place in Hollywood history and explores its lasting legacy as a template for later female-driven projects.

Tickets: $35 bundled ticket includes a copy of the book; $5 general admission (book not included). The museum store will be open before and after the event; Ms. Douglas will sign copies bundled with tickets and sold by the museum store.
