What about the ladies?
Mon, 9 Oct 2000, 05:38 pmLadies,
Don't you just get sick of all the notices urgently requiring male actors? I know this is an age old problem - but what about the women? There are two films being made at the moment with nearly entirely male casts. One has 96 roles, only about 6 for women. I think its about time writers (including female ones) start reflecting the fact that over half the population of this world is actually female! Maybe I'm way off base - but are eighty percent of the female population 18-25 with model looks as well?
I am sure we could have some interesting female roles for women over 30 (apart from someone's mother). Ah well, I got that off my chest - I'll just go back to my knitting and shut up.
