Just Like the Men is an original silent film written in 1914 by Ella Higginson, a novelist, poet laureate, and campaign manager for Frances Axtell. Their campaign was a success making Axtell one of the first women in Washington State to be sworn into legislative office. 100+ years later, this screwball-comedy offers a glimpse of women's first entrance into politics, just in time for the 2020 centennial of women's suffrage.
