      In 2017 women comprised only 34% of all speaking characters in the top-grossing 100 films. Of those films, in those that were directed by women, women comprised 42% of all speaking characters. #ifawomandirected we're more likely to have women in speaking roles.pic.twitter.com/VVDPo2D1qZ

      Films by women have more female characters and films with more female characters tend to pass the Bechdel test and according to @FiveThirtyEight films that pass the Bechdel test are a better ROI. https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/the-dollar-and-cents-case-against-hollywoods-exclusion-of-women/ … #ifawomandirectedpic.twitter.com/A1qwjN5Rej

          Jocelyn Moorhouse's HOW TO MAKE AN AMERICAN QUILT ('95) showed women telling women's stories of loss, regret, choice, redemption, sacrifice, and love. #ifawomandirectedpic.twitter.com/BJrJALUErW

          When Kimberly Peirce tackled Stephen King's CARRIE, I felt she got deeper into the complexities of women than even the story's original creator had. https://cinema-fanatic.com/2014/10/10/female-filmmaker-friday-carrie-2013-dir-kimberly-peirce/ … #IfAWomanDirectedpic.twitter.com/6c5bVjx8gR
