12 female-directed films you need to watch in 2019.
The first ever Academy Awards ceremony took place in 1929, and nearly 90 years later, only five women have been nominated for Best Director. Numerically speaking, out of the 455 directors nominated in total, just five of those are ladies. And only one of them ever won — shout out to Kathryn Bigelow in 2010, fornominations were announced this week and they were consistent with past years - zero female directors. As a filmmaker, a lover of movies, and a woman… it’s a bummer.
However you may feel about the Academy Awards, the silly nominations represent how mainstream culture sees women, which for directors means not recognizing them at all this year. But the work is there, the movies exist, and they are seriously great. In a couple of minutes after reading the nominees, I came up with 12 female-directed films, made in 2018, that rocked me.
is the story of an aging New York City couple and their desperate attempts to have a child together later in life. Starring a fierce Kathryn Hahn and anxious Paul Giamatti, this movie makes you laugh through pain — which is truly Tamara’s gift as a director.
