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.'

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.

People aren't so interested in seeing movies about women's problems.

What bugs me is that movies don't reflect how interesting and vibrant women are. We don't treasure women as they get older.

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

The world needs more women filmmakers, so we have to keep encouraging ourselves and one another, and eventually things must get easier for us.

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

Women have to take more control of their careers. They can't just wait to be cast in a film.

I'm attracted to films that have strong female characters because there are strong female characters in my life. That's my own reality, so it's a doorway into a world for me.

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.
