關於這部電影

Women and men attend film schools in equal numbers, but women direct only 4% of top grossing feature films in the US. Why are women largely shut out of this prestigious, lucrative and culturally influential profession? High profile women directors including Ava DuVernay (A Wrinkle In Time), Lena Dunham (“Girls), Jill Soloway (“Transparent”), among others, offer candid, unfiltered and often humorous tales of their careers in Hollywood, while experts on gender inequality destroy the myths that have allowed discrimination in Hollywood to thrive. The entertainment industry has denied women’s voices for decades, but with a new Federal investigation into discriminatory hiring in Hollywood and a powerful movement toward equal representation gaining momentum, could this be the dawn of a new era?

評分和評論

This is a documentary of complain, complaining no job for women as a movie director. But in other field, such as medical doctor, women have never been discriminated off by their intelligence. So, the reason may be very different from what this documentary is talking about.

This movie is honest, transparent, and includes some of the greatest role models for women in film telling their stories of pain, suffering, triumph and telling you like it "really" is. Thank you to Amy Adrion for making this film, thank you to the talented crew, we see you slating, and pulling focus while watching, phenomenal job! Every time I want to give up or think is it worth it, I can watch this movie to keep the flame burning under my ass to keep going and get my stories told and keep getting work. We need to have a sequel to this in next few years and champion all of the new work that women damn well will make and have to celebrate . Bring it on! #womeninfilm #halfthepicturerocks
