When you look at movies like 'Titanic,' they make money because of women. They go to see it and bring their men, too.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I think a lot of the time in films, men get roles where they create their own destiny and women are just tools, supporters for that.
Women have to take more control of their careers. They can't just wait to be cast in a film.
In television, women can really run anything. It can be a comedy, it can be a drama, it can be genre, it can be anything. But in films, women are still getting to the top.
Hollywood usually doesn't have strong woman in films like that, and it's stupid, so for the most part they're usually being directed and written by men.
Women one hundred percent support each other in the movie industry.
Most women are not programmed to prefer a great career to a great man and a family. They feel they were sold a bill of goods at college and by the media.
I think that weird rumor or idea in Hollywood that people don't want to see female-driven movies couldn't be further from the truth. Women buy tickets to movies.
The stereotypes really play into what kinds of companies women can get funded for.
Those of us in the industry who are still foolishly clinging to the idea that female films with women at the center are niche experiences - they are not. Audiences want to see them and, in fact, they earn money. The world is round, people.
There are really very few roles for women in films in which you can also make a living.
