  • Josey Aimes is based on Lois Jenson, who started working in the mines in 1975 and endured 13 years of harassment before filing her first lawsuit. Jenson v. Eveleth Mines was settled in 1998, 10 years after it was first filed and over 20 years after the harassment began. 16 of 16 found this interesting Interesting? Yes No |
  • All of the harassment depicted in the movie really happened to various women. Two women were trapped in porta-potties that were tipped while they were inside. Miners ejaculated onto female miner's clothes in lockers three times. Many more incidents of harassment occurred than could be shown in a 2-hour movie. 14 of 14 found this interesting Interesting? Yes No |
  • According to the book Class Action, the rape that produced Lois Jenson's son occurred after high school. In real life, Jenson put her daughter up for adoption as a toddler because she was overwhelmed trying to raise two children on her own, in low paying jobs. Her father supported her decision to work in the mine because he thought it would help her provide for her son. 11 of 11 found this interesting Interesting? Yes No |

  • In real life there were multiple trials, not just the one depicted in the movie. In the first trial, Jenson and two other women petitioned to have the lawsuit designated a class action, on behalf of all women working in the mines. The judge certified a class action including only the hourly female mine workers, not the salaried female officer workers who were also sexually harassed. The second trial established that sexual harassment occurred and that the company was liable for it. The third trial was to determine the amount of monetary damages each woman suffered. The fourth trial, in the 8th Circuit Court of Appeals, reversed the award of damages. The company settled just before the fifth trial started, paying each plaintiff an average of $233,000. By the time Jenson received compensation from the company in 1999, her children were grown and she was too disabled to work. 9 of 9 found this interesting Interesting? Yes No |

Goofs: Revealing mistakes: The indoor hockey scene was shot at the arena in Eveleth, MN, where the average temperature doesn't get far above 10 degrees Fahrenheit during hockey season.
