More about the book
The McDonagh sisters revolutionized Australian cinema by establishing the country's first female-run film production company from 1926 to 1933. Paulette, one of the few women directors globally, alongside her sisters Phyllis, who managed production and publicity, and Isabel, who starred in leading roles, challenged the traditional themes of "haystack movies." Their innovative approach introduced an exciting urban modernity to Australian film, marking a significant shift in the industry's focus and representation.
