Fanny: The Right to Rock

Fanny: The Right to Rock is a Canadian documentary film, directed by Bobbi Jo Hart and released in 2021.

Outline
The film is a profile of Fanny, an all-female rock band from the 1970s whose members included lesbian music pioneer June Millington. Hart uses more than 80 photographs taken by bandmates’ friend Linda Wolf "to illustrate their unbridled woman power — a tangle of hair, bodies, and a baby — under the roof of Fanny Hill, a house in L.A. that Millington calls a sorority with amps.” The film premiered at the 2021 Hot Docs Canadian International Documentary Festival, where it was named one of five winners of the Rogers Audience Award. It was subsequently screened at the 2021 Inside Out Film and Video Festival, where it won the award for Best Canadian Film. ==Cast==

Reception
Dennis Harvey of Variety wrote "Fanny: The Right to Rock remains thoroughly engaging thanks to the demonstrable talent and brassy forthrightness of its central personalities". Susan G. Cole of Point of View magazine generally praised the film but noted some omissions, such as Fanny's collaborations with other musicians or their influence on the Riot grrrl movement. John Doyle of the Globe and Mail called it "terrific and eye-opening". ==References==
