 Lynne Ramsay's "Morvern Callar" is based on the woman's film tradition; a young woman escapes to Spain and pretends to be the author of her boyfriend's novel.While Morvern's journeys and transformations allow for liberation, she ends up where she started.Jeanine Basinger notes that woman's films were often criticized for reinforcing conventional values, above all, the notion that women could only find happiness in love, marriage and motherhood.
