Natalie Portman: Female Actress Don't have Enough Row In Hollywood
The Hollywood
hollow fame Natalie Portman said female Actress
Don't have Enough Row In Hollywood on camera award night. The Hollywood popular
face to be present in select theaters on Friday playing the title role in Jackie,
director Pablo Larrain’s drama about Jackie Kennedy in the days
following her husband’s assassination.
It’s a role that would very well give Portman
another Oscar nomination Opportunity (after her win for 2010’s Black Swan).
But speaking to the actress earlier she said, those meaty roles come along all
too rarely. In an interview with New York magazine, Portman, 35,
complained that contemporary Hollywood
films don’t make great female characters a priority.
“There are not great female roles that are just flourishing,”Portman said.
Playing Jackie Kennedy, the actress immersed herself in mid-century American culture, and believes that the opportunities for women in film were actually better in the ’50s and ’60s. “Even if they’ll make the occasional sexist comment, they still have a central woman character who has a personality,” she said, citing films like Billy Wilder’s Sunset Boulevard and Alfred Hitchcock’s Marnie. “Now I feel like movies are all about white men and then you get a couple that happen to be about women.”
Natalie Portman As A Movie Producer
Portman strive to do her part to correct this in
balance by becoming a producer, but her first big endeavor, the western Jane
Got a Gun, was a box-office failure plagued with production problems. “I am not a producer,” she admitted.
“This is not my talent in life.”
She did, however, get some decent reviews for her
2016 directorial debut, A Tale of Love and Darkness.
And
while she has based away from Hollywood in recent years, she’s still looking
out for those great female roles — the next one being the part of Ruth Bader
Ginsburg in a film about the Supreme Court justice’s early years as an ACLU
lawyer.
For that
movie, she insisted on finding a female director, who has been chosen but not
yet announced. “With the issues of gender discrimination in Hollywood right
now, how could we not do that?” she said.
Discrimination against women in Hollywood is recently the subject of a
federal investigation since the lady’s aint getting enough role to play in Hollywood .
