It’s not unusual. But we would go nuts if three of the nominated films had 26 women and one man. It would be a very, very unusual thing. We’re still not telling everybody’s story in our country and that’s where we are.” -- Meryl Streep, 3/7/09 Who new? Who even thought about it? (Besides Meryl?) I thought Hollywoodians were mostly "Progressives?" We keep hearing they are "Liberals." Coulda fooled me! Amma PS. I realize I am quite late in posting this. But that doesn't negate it's salience as an issue for women in the performing arts. I read it back in March, shortly after Meryl said it.... but it got past my radar for great Feminist quotes.
