I don't know if there's ever been a female-driven film or a male-driven film. I don't believe in that. I believe a film is a film - a movie can only work if everything about the film works.
It would be futile to attempt to fit women into a masculine pattern of attitudes, skills and abilities and disastrous to force them to suppress their specifically female characteristics and abilities by keeping up the pretense that there are no diffe...
Before novels written by women were relegated to their own 'genre,' I was introduced to Jane Smiley by a dear professor who raised my awareness of what female authors were bringing to the table of contemporary fiction.

When you get into your 40s, the roles do tend to drop off, and I've seen it happening to friends of mine. Hopefully it is improving, and there are female TV executives now who are championing women of all ages in leading roles. But I'm not counting o...
My female writers have always been my backbone. I had a writing room of six women for five years so I know what women do. Cultivated by me, by the way!

A lot of my favorite artists are fashion icons.
I was not influenced by any artists.
Competitions are for horses, not artists.
I'm an actor, but I'm an artist.
As artists, we are eternally heartbroken.
I'm privileged that I'm an artist.
The artist needs to understand the truth that lies at the bottom of an enigma.

As an artist, I want a reaction.
I grew up with artists.
