The current landscape rests on three interdependent pillars: Production Power, Genre Expansion, and The Auteur Middle-Age.
While the screen is improving, the fight isn't over. The industry still suffers from a massive lack of female directors over 50. The stories are getting better, but we need more women in the editing bay and the director’s chair to ensure these narratives don't slip back into cliché.
We need more Frances McDormands producing, more Jodie Fosters directing, and more studio heads willing to bet big money on a story about a woman in her 60s who isn't just a prop.
The most significant change is that mature actresses are no longer waiting for the phone to ring; they are greenlighting projects.
