Gender Inequality in Film

— Posted by Frank Pasquine

With recent female-led successes like The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, The Heat, and the hit TV show Girls, women are taking Hollywood by storm, right? Not according to this infographic created by the New York Film Academy. While it’s not all disparaging news for women - there have been major strides since the dawn of film - there are still ways to go. How do you feel about these stats? We’d love to hear your comments!

    This is great work. Interesting facts that deal with a topical issue in our society today. The gender equality issue has not dissolved in our society and it is empowering to see women rise up and film directors and producers. It is not that women are not rising to the top, it is that for the longest time industries such as the film industry have been dominated by men and it is now that women are breaking into the field and exercising their creativity.
