Lights, Camera, Action! The new film, Molly Brown: Biography of a Changing Nation, premieres June 26, 2008 on Rocky Mountain PBS at 9:30 p.m. (Channel 6 in Denver/Boulder/Ft Collins/Eastern slope; Ch 8 in Colorado Springs/Pueblo and Ch 18 in Grand Junction/Western slope/)

Produced by the MollyBrownHouseMuseum and directed by award-winning Denver filmmaker Jim Havey, Molly Brown: Biography of a Changing Nation follows the story of the Unsinkable Molly Brown's life, using her experiences as a focusing lens for the phenomenal changes that took place in American life as the twentieth century dawned. Industrialization, immigration, urbanization and women's suffrage, modern art and modern technology all play a role.

Western historian and scholar Patricia Limerick of the Center for the American West at the University of Colorado at Boulder introduces the film with remarks about Molly Brown's place in Colorado history and explores the reasons why tall tales grew up around western women like Molly.

To complement the film, a new exhibit is now on display at the MollyBrownHouseMuseum called "No Pink Tea Politics: Margaret Brown, Women's Suffrage & Denver's 1908Convention." In 1908, politics embroiled the nation, women pushed for the right to vote and Denver shone in the national spotlight by hosting its first ever national political convention-the Democratic National Convention. Margaret "Molly" Brown waded right into the fray.

The exhibit "No Pink Tea" Politics, named for a Margaret Brown quote, recreates the controversies and passions of the day, with special focus on women's role in the political arena as they campaigned for the right to help select the next American president, regardless of party affiliation. In 1908, women in Denver and elsewhere grew increasingly avid in their desire to cast ballots.

The Molly Brown House Museum exhibiter creates the tools they used in their pursuit of suffrage, including an intimate suffrage tea setting, a lecture-style luncheon common in the movement and even the sashes, signs and banners that marked a truly grassroots effort. Special women's suffrage china, an authentic ballot box and Margaret Brown's own words and remarks are on display.

General museum admission, including the exhibit, is $7 for adults, $6 for seniors over 65 and $4 for kids 6-12 years old. Museum tours run Tuesday through Saturday from10 a.m. - 4p.m.and on Sundays from 12 noon - 4 p.m. During June, July and August, the Museum is also open on Mondays.
