Join UCLA Film & Television Archive for a free screening of “Legacy”!
Directed by Karen Arthur, a first-time filmmaker, and independently produced, “Legacy” confounds 1970s Hollywood’s expectations with the introduction of a new kind of cinematic woman. Bissie (played by Joan Hotchkis) is a woman unraveling under the pressures of a vapid and materialistic society. She stuns audiences with her honesty that is confrontational, yet heartfelt, and her vulnerability.
