Quotes about Mary Harron
"[Mary] Harron has continuously examined gender, class, patriarchy, and male control throughout her work in a variety of perspectives and has utilized a range of genres and experimented with various visual styles. Her filmography, which encompasses feature films, short films, advertisements and television, demands closer attention."
-- Kyle Barrett
