New York, June 24, 2003 — To commemorate Gay Pride Month in 2003, Zeitgeist Films will debut a Special Edition DVD release of Greta Schiller’s riveting and revealing portrait of 1920s distaff ex-pat intelligencia, Paris Was a Woman.

In the early decades of the 20th century, Paris was the undisputed artistic capital of the world. Cultural titans Gertrude Stein, Colette, Djuna Barnes, painter Marie Laurencin, publishers and booksellers Sylvia Beach and Adrienne Monnier, and New Yorker journalist Janet Flanner (not to mention Ernest Hemingway, Pablo Picasso and James Joyce) were all part of the between-the-wars Left Bank inner circle. Utilizing groundbreaking research, newly-discovered home movies and intimate storytelling that intertwines interview with anecdote, this award-winning documentary re-creates the mood and flavor of a unique female artistic community who flocked to the City of Lights during its most magical era.

Gertrude Stein's sexuality is a minor detail in her identity, but she was a lesbian. She lived with her lover, Alice B. Tolkas in France.

Here's a fun fact if you're looking for one: Alice B. Tolkas is rumored to be the creator of the "pot brownie". Seriously. Look it up!

It seems to me that her only talent was her ability to attracted talented people to her house. Her writing is pretty self-absorbed. Try reading it.
