Inequality by numbers, this website link by the New York film academy showed me the misrepresentation of females in Hollywood movies in 2013. The link is incredibly useful as it shows the number of female actors who are in big US movies and what they need to do or how they need to be shown to even get a speaking role. I also found useful the divide between male and female wages they earn per year with also the average age being a decade difference. This article is useful to me because it means I have facts and numbers to back up that women are grossly misrepresented and segregated from the men of US film.
This is good, but you should be using this as context for more recent data. Again - look at Geena Davis Institute findings, follow it on facebook (and twitter I think), and there are many articles also on Screen International website.
ReplyDeleteYou still need to look at Laura Mulvey's work on The Male Gaze - it's really essential for your topic.
