INTRODUCING DOROTHY DANDRIDGE, 1999, Dir. Martha Coolidge, 115 Min, HBO Films, USA

Coolidge branches out into musical territory with INTRODUCING DOROTHY DANDRIDGE, but her subject, the true story of the first black woman to receive an Academy Award nomination for Best Actress, only deepens her existing commitment to portraying American women in all of their imperfect glory. Join us for a Q&A with Martha Coolidge in person to discuss these fascinating leading ladies.
