My name is Krista Frost and I am interested in making a few changes to improve this article. -First there is some terminology I though could be explained for clarification. The term cinefeminism- women who make movies that represent what women are thinking; because films are easier to make differently, it is easier for women to create different perspectives. These definitions were found in "Cultural Studies As Critical Theory", a definition by B. Ruby Rich would be preferred and should be cited in the paragraph saying she founded the term. -If possible I think a picture would be a good addition to this wiki. -Citation could be helpful in the paragraph claiming that she has been published in major national publications and has coined the term cinafeminism. -Her contributions to different publications is interesting but needs citations and I think explaining what she said or using quotes applicable to her work with film and feminism film could add to the wiki article. -"The cover of her classic 1998 book, Chick Flicks: Theories and Memories of the Feminist Film Movement, reads, "If there was a moment during the sixties, seventies, or eighties that changed the history of the women's film movement, B. Ruby Rich was there. Part journalistic chronicle, part memoir, and 100 percent pure cultural historical odyssey, Chick Flicks – with its definitive, the way-it-was collective essays – captures the birth and growth of feminist film as no other book has done." -Think this sentence/ Paragraph could use rewording, it is confusing and there is no citation or working link to this book. My question is, and maybe I am just reading this wrong, but why would she speak of herself on her book title? In which case then the wording of this sentence is confusing and needs to be reworked. — Preceding unsigned comment added by KristaFrost (talk • contribs) 22:53, 11 April 2016 (UTC)
