I get really excited every time there's a female character who is really strong because a lot of females in film are really soft.

I love strong women in films that are allowed to play women and not male fantasies.

I do like strong women in my movies. I have five sisters, so I've just grown up with that model.

There aren't enough good roles for strong women. I wish we had more female writers. Most of the female characters you see in films today are the 'poor heartbroken girl.'

I'm drawn to female characters; not all of them are strong characters.

I would love to do a chick flick sometime soon, a film with strong female characters - when I say strong, I don't mean that they are changing the world, but just be real women.

I like strong female characters. I try to write them as role models for young girls.

I think it's important that we have strong, female characters in movies now, which can really leave an impression on people - especially young people - and that they're not 'sexy' or 'cool.'

Critics often say, 'Oh she makes films about strong women'. Wrong; I make films about complex characters and the choices they make.

I'm attracted to strong female roles: females that aren't necessarily defined by their relationships with men.
