The Nashville Women in Film and Television has established the “ALICE” Award, named after Alice Guy-Blache, the world’s first female director.  Alice’s films were noted for their energy and risk-taking while creating excitement and an attack of the senses. Alice experimented with sound during the silent era, with color-tinting during the black-and-white era, and with diverse casting when it was unthinkable.  Each year we give this award to women in the who exemplify the spirit of this extraordinary woman.
