Philanthropy Women: This Changes Everything Wins its First Award of 2020
Banging the Table Award for Women in Hollywood: This Changes Everything
Women have been getting written out of scripts and sidelined in every major role in filmmaking since the industry set up in Hollywood and bankers decided filmmaking was a man’s job. This year’s film that breaks through the talk to expose again the relentless misogyny that ruins our film industry is This Changes Everything. This film is the culmination of decades of knowledge and experience. With major support from Geena Davis herself as Executive Producer and the mountains of knowledge produced over the years from the Geena Davis Institute for Women in Media, this film really hits hard. We have the data now, and women are getting wiser to the tricks that Hollywood continues to play to rule women out. Watch this movie if you care about this issue, and use the next year to push for better representation of women in media as a consumer, activist, and donor.
