I think it was on Wednesday (Dec. 11) that it aired. I didn't tape it but
you can get a transcript of any Oprah show, there's a number you call
that's aired during her show to get one.

Off the top of my head I can't think of any, but I would check out Women
Make Movies and Third World Newsreel and the Media Network for more info.
You might be able to find them on the 'net but if not I'll look for the
addresses in my stuff later. They all distribute movies and you can
usually go see them in a screening room at their offices for five bucks or
something.
