DOUBLE DARE
Amanda Micheli, 2003, 81 minutes.
A double-barreled, action-packed documentary about two Hollywood stuntwomen, Jeannie Epper and Zoë Bell. Epper, who refuses to reture at sixty-four, doubled for Wonder Woman in the '70s. and Bell landed the coveted job doubling Xena at the age of eighteen. With star-studded interviews and rollicking live-action sequences, Double Dare is a candid look at two strong, dedicated women who pursue tough careers in male-dominated Tinseltown.
