He and She

He and She is an early feminist “battle of the sexes” drama (1911) by Rachel Crothers. “He” and “She” are Tom and Ann Herford, husband and wife artists whose marriage is threatened when they both compete for a prestigious commission. Decades ahead of its time, He and She examines the plight of the emancipated woman and the double standard she must confront when trying to reconcile career and family. Kyle Fabel directs.
