The last picture reminded me of a photo in the Dominion Post a couple of years ago, of a uniformed Wellington police inspector breastfeeding her baby. I cut it out and kept it because I found it intriguing, something to do with the juxtaposition of power and nurturing.

None of the city libraries have it as far as I can tell, and I don't know how much luck you'd have in video stores - Aro Video in Wellington is generally dependable about these things but they don't have it.

And I regret not making the point more explicitly in the post - Rosie the Riveter is a fantastic film, deserving of much greater distribution and appreciation.
