Mary Anning and the Dinosaur Hunters (2024)

June 7, 2024 Drama 2h 33m

Mary Anning, fossiler of the 1800's Jurassic Coast strives for equality and recognition.

Overview

The film reveals the life, plight and loves of the eminent Mary Anning, an 1800's fossil hunter - navigating her career and research in a male dominated society at a time when women's research was largely unrecognised or plagiarised by men. Predominantly unknown despite her spectacular finds, including Icthyiousauri, a Pterodactyl and Plesiosaurus, and notwithstanding the fact that Darwins' 'Origin of Species' was largely influenced by her work. She is at last becoming the most celebrated paleontologist of all time.
