And I saw the director was a white male. This film is about gender inequality in the TV and movie industry and they couldn't hire a woman to direct this?!
A really decent doc, but like 99% of the reviews here, I'm completely dumbfounded why they hired a MALE to direct this. The epitome of WTF?
The first half of this movie focuses on women characters and lack of representation on screen and all I could think about was all the great female characters and actresses on daytime TV, but sadly, that genre continues to be ignored.

This documentary was really eye-opening and well done. While agree that it would've been great to have a female director, isn't it ALSO powerful that a male is seeking opportunity to give space for female voices? We need both women AND men to speak up and fight for equality. I also really appreciate the call to action at the end. I immediately started looking up female-directed movies that I can see in theaters and support by sharing with others. I'm just disappointed Netflix didn't pop this up on my watchlist much sooner...yet another barrier to tear down- algorithms that fail to suggest female-based content to viewers.
I was so surprised to see that this was directed by a man. It was very disappointing that after tell us to hire more women for an hour and a half, they didn't hire a woman themselves to direct it.
As a minority I can totally relate to this very well made documentary. I am amazed but not surprised by the lack of gender diversity in the entertainment industry. Really impressed by the work of Geena Davis' organization to bring this disparity to light. Yes, women and minorities are under-represented and yes the time to change is now.

Reese Witherspoon: The basis of your thinking is determined by the first images you see; whose values are important and whose stories are important, and that's what we're teaching little girls and little boys.
