"However, we are living through a moment in which stories that comforted us since girlhood have to adapt when prospects for real-life American women grow worse. These new tales update the familiar to soothe our grown-up selves in powerful ways."

Revisiting iconography beloved by girls is something that’s happening beyond the Greta Gerwig film.

"Alienated by the exclusionary and racist fantasies of Hollywood cinema, Black women developed their own way of looking, in which a critical awareness of stereotypes preëmpted any straightforward identification with the mammies or tragic mulattas onscreen."

In 1973, the film theorist Laura Mulvey used concepts from psychoanalysis to forge a feminist polemic and a lasting shorthand for gender dynamics onscreen.

“As a community, especially Asian women, we’re expected to be submissive and not rock the boat,” said Cola, who co-stars in “Joy Ride” and plays one of Ben’s longtime friends in “Shortcomings.” She added, “I actually make it a point to be the loudest person in the room because I don’t want anyone to think that I’m timid.”

Forget the pious immigrant family drama. Films and shows like “Joy Ride,” “Beef” and “Shortcomings” are finally exploring all dimensions of the experience.

"Movies from that time period often placed responsibility and blame on women, and assault was portrayed as a predictable consequence of drinking and partying too hard. Although filmmakers are now more conscious of the sexist taboos and contemporary cultural boundaries, numerous American classics normalized sexual harassment and even assault."

These film staples tested the limits on consent and respectable behavior in an industry already ravaged by abuses of power.

“There’s this feeling that you’re going to be judged first as a woman and second as a writer or director or artist.”

She understands, of course, why these panels are still needed. But on such a panel at the Nantucket Film Festival, she expressed her hope they won’t be needed forever.

"The search for truly resonant disability representation in the history of cinema is continuing, but over the decades, many scholars keep returning to a perhaps surprising touchstone: a 91-year-old film set in a circus."

Though it has detractors, scholars and advocates have largely embraced this film for the way it shows people just living their lives while disabled.

“I realized that my place in this show is not just a celebration, it is an act of defiance against a reality that is simply not true, which is that we have no place on screens or in fantasy spaces."

"I was statistically the most attacked castmember of the entire show," Nomvete detailed during a conversation at THR's Raising Our Voices luncheon Wednesday.

"No matter how women are getting the chance to direct these days, the sentiment that they need to lead a new generation of female filmmakers seems to prevail. All three directors, whose films are showing at the Tribeca Festival, gave key jobs — as producers, writers, designers and editors — to other women."

In a milestone, women outnumber men this year as directors at the Tribeca Festival. Three of them shared their paths to the director’s chair.

"There's a satisfying vindication that accompanies a "Good for Her" monster. Her actions don't exist in a vacuum. She doesn't act out of pure aggression, nor does she invoke pain and suffering onto just anyone. This selective consumption is a therapeutic method of regaining a bit of autonomy, exercising some literal (or figurative) demons, and serving up a plate of justice that would often just be overlooked by the U.S. criminal justice system."

There's a wide variety of monsters, and it's through that variety that we find a common thread: mankind kinda sucks.

"Latifah shares some stats: “Not even 10% of all directors of commercial advertising were women, yet we represent over 50% of the buying power.” With women essentially running households across the country, it begs the question, “Who’s telling our stories and who’s marketing to us? Who’s coming up with these ideas?”

Over the last four years, Queen Latifah’s Queen Collective has developed into a flourishing pipeline for women and non-binary filmmakers of color in both the film and advertising industries. “We’re…

"It’s interesting to observe how quick people are to villainize strong women, how fun it is to see the worst. People love to call someone a bitch. I mean, the misogyny is on fire, still.”

“I mean, the misogyny is on fire, still,” Posey said of modern cinema.

“The Warner Bros. Discovery merger sharply illustrates how consolidation increases the power of gatekeepers at the expense of marginalized voices."

“The casualties of this mega-merger include numerous projects created by, featuring and/or centering the experiences of women and people of color,” an addendum to a WGA report said.

"It’s not just the volume and range of films centered on female characters. It’s also a shift in consciousness that has made feminist concerns mainstream."

“It’s not entirely based on the quality of a project per se. There’s a lot going on there and a lot of cooks in the kitchen when it comes to nominations. Maybe I shouldn’t say that, but I think that’s true. I think a lot of people know that.”

Another round of Oscar nominations arrived this week and proved once again the Academy’s ignorance when it comes to horror. Jordan Peele’s “Nope” was completely shut out of …

"Some of Bassett’s comments make me feel like she doesn’t understand what many fans love about the character, and that many of Sonja’s subtleties will be cast aside in Bassett’s film."

In the right hands, Red Sonja is an amazing, kick-butt nuanced character fighting through a "kill or be killed" world. In the wrong hands, she is a one-dimensional caricature of an archaic male fantasy.

“It was absolutely an accomplishment for representation,” Emily Ladau, disability rights advocate and host of The Accessible Stall Podcast, told IndieWire over Zoom. “I appreciated it, but I also feel like we cannot put that much weight on any one singular depiction of a marginalized person’s experience.”

A disabled creatives in the industry tell IndieWire, they didn’t expect the Oscar winner would bring a groundswell of change. That’s nothing new.
