'In a time when we have more female directors, writers, and storytellers than ever, it’s not enough just to be given permission to make art.'
, felt massively important but still few and far between. These were important, timely stories created by women. And like much of Hollywood’s overall treatment of women, they were ignored.
The lack of inclusion at the Golden Globes, however much fun they are, isn’t entirely surprising, or even new. In the entire history of the Golden Globes, there have only been four female Best Director nominees, with one winner in 1983. The situation has gotten so embarrassingly loud that evenaddressed it on Sunday night. “No female directors were nominated this year. No one. I mean, that's bad.
The kicker, whether or not Gervais is in on the joke, is simple: “Why aren’t these women happy with what they’ve got? They get to make movies, don’t they?” But it’s not enough — it’s not enough when the projects women creators are making are still seen as niche. And that hits at both sides: they’re seen as not artsy enough for awards show acclaim, but they're also seen as too narrow for mass commercial consumption.
So it’s ironic then that these shows and films that didn’t win or for some, didn’t even get nominated, are some of the most culturally-relevant works from the past year., a Netflix original based on true events, shed light on the horrific process of reporting sexual assault. As the Harvey Weinstein trials start today , the realities that people who have been sexually assaulted face are stories that could not be more timely or needed.
