    Those are incredibly impressive numbers I had no idea she was even in that many things over the last few years. Statistics from the article are promising too, women directed features are up from 4% to 13%. Hopefully that trend continues. There also seems to be lots of opportunity on the TV side as well. Mythic quest has been promoting lots of women directors in the last two seasons.

    So many, unnecessary shots at Kidman … why?

    It’s a movies community and so many people are rude.

      Three things combined: woman, money, female empowerment. Most of the replies probably don’t even follow this comm, they just have to share their lukewarm thought about a woman encouraging female empowerment, by being negative.

      Lemmy has a big problem with incel-like behavior/thought patterns. Has since I joined going on 2 years ago. The wave I was part of managed to drive off the majority of female users in under 6 months. Just like Reddit but without the popular-platform-userbase that allows some of that shit to be drowned out.

      There’s a very large subset of users who don’t like women and want them to stfu and go away. And we female types see that in this sort of post, which is why the new exodus had to create or resurrect -any- femme-focused comm.

      And if we keep this shit up they will be driven off in 6 mths again.
