Jill Godmilow won her initial acclaim for co-directing (with folksinger Judy Collins) Antonia: A Portrait of the Woman, a documentary look at the life of pioneer orchestra conductor Antonia Brico. The film is a compelling portrayal of Brico, Who was 73 when the film was released, and how her desire to conduct a major symphony orchestra was continually thwarted because of sexism and discrimination. Brico poignantly describes how a musician who is not part of an orchestra at least may practice on her own to hone her skills, but a conductor—whose instrument is her orchestra—is not allowed the same luxury. At the time of its release, just as the women’s movement was beginning to make headway among the masses of American baby boomers, Antonia: A Portrait of the Woman served as a valuable feminist testament of how sexism thwarts personal ambition.
