It’s SO easy in Hollywood not to let people do things.
You can just take the money they’d like to have to do things, and give it to someone else to do something else instead. It’s that simple.
It is so easy I will take the idea to not hire Brett Ratner to direct things on Shark Tank, and I will pitch how easy it is not to give him things, and they will give me one million dollars just so I can not give it to him.
And the reason I need to do that, is because Hollywood has already decided not to give me things. And I didn’t need to spend 25 years harassing women to get that. That’s how easy it is.

For evidence I submit that in the pandemic a lot of grown-ups could’ve used the lockdown to indulge in grown-up pursuits like studying art history or reading Kant, and mostly we’ve just eaten cereal and bread with butter and watched cartoons.
I want to make a movie about the white lady passive aggressive interrogation that is happening right now to root out which of the lovelies ratted like a damn champ
If we did not live in a misogynist society this would have as many greenlit projects as the GameStop story by dawn
I grew up in the wine country. Let me tell you, when rich white moms get mad at each other? It is a lot like CIA interrogations before we pretended there were laws.
What if- I know this is crazy - but what if - I know, I know, just stay with me - but WHAT IF we let some women direct shows and movies about iconic female characters
It’s bananas, I know it’s just a bit of silly talk, after all if you put a woman behind the camera and a woman in front of the camera there’s a 64% chance the camera will explode but it would be such a TWIST
I just feel like I see so many things that are ANNE OF CLEVES directed by Joe Manguy! CLEOPATRA directed by Harold von Dude! THE ADVENTURES OF YOUNG PRINCESS LEIA written and directed by Penis McManMan!
