“Woman Inherits the Earth” is a mother-daughter podcast primarily about women in film. We will discuss movies directed by women, as well as those in which women characters or the treatment of women is the focus of the story. We may on occasion also examine women in television, both from a creative standpoint - women writers and showrunners - and looking at the stories and characters that showcase women’s lives.
We may talk about production values one minute and stereotypes the next. Many of the issues we will examine are not new to our national dialogue and may involve politics, the workplace, economic and racial disparities, laws, culture, family dynamics, gender roles, and the very nature of how we live our everyday lives. Bias Disclaimer: We bring a feminine, woman-focused, feminist perspective to this discussion.
“Woman Inherits the Earth” is brought to you by the hosts of “Where You Lead,” a podcast about “The Gilmore Girls” that originally aired in 2022-2023 and is still available on Spotify and YouTube (but no new episodes are currently planned).
Woman Inherits the Earth: Children of Men
In this, the Children of Men episode of the pod, Beth and Tess discuss a movie about the bleak far-off future of…2027! Topics include Michael Caine’s performance as a hippie, the music of the dystopia, a lot about how the children are very literally our future, how gender relates to violence, and what do you do in a world without hope?
