I've worked with so few female directors. — © Andrea Riseborough
I've worked with so few female directors.
There are a lot of female directors in Lebanon but we can't really talk about a true film industry, it's still very small. But we do have a few female directors.
I've worked with a couple of female directors now, and I think that they're amazing. As good or better than guy directors.
Yeah, I've worked with a couple of female directors, now, and I think that they're amazing. As good or better than guy directors.
When I was an undergraduate in Film & TV at NYU/Tisch School of the Arts, most of the projects I shot had male directors, and only a few had female directors.
When I was in college, my graduation thesis was called 'Female Directors.' I interviewed all of the important female directors from Mexico. There were four. That was it.
I don't really consider myself a female director, and I don't want to do so for other women. Female directors are just directors.
I'm still confounded by how few female directors there are. I don't get it.
I'd worked with directors who wouldn't collaborate. Then I've also worked with directors who didn't really know what they wanted. I knew I didn't want to be either one of those guys - or girls.
I've worked with a lot of female directors over the course of my career: Martha Coolidge, Catherine Hardwicke, Jodie Foster.
There are still so few female directors. There are far fewer writers than we'd like to see.
I have worked with three female first assistant directors - on 'Hostiles,' 'Gone Girl,' and a short film, 'The Human Voice,' and they have all been exceptional.
I don't think I have advice for female directors as opposed to male directors. I think all first-time directors should try and be as prepared as they possibly can, because it's hard!
I think I worked way harder for the female directors than the male ones. There's nothing like women challenging each other to really make you do your best.
I'm not saying I only want to work with female directors. But I want to continue to work with emerging female directors.
I'm just hoping that as I get older, and as more and more movies get made by female directors, what we start to see is how, in the same way good male directors get a shot at creating interesting male and female characters, women do as well.
A 90-minute time frame is not long enough to tell a good female story, and that's why long-format television has become so great for female storytelling and for female performers and directors and writers.
