Natalie Portman Accused Of Hypocrisy After Wearing Cape With Names Of Snubbed Female Directors Oscars

On Sunday, Natalie Portman's Oscars outfit became one of the most talked about dresses of the night, thanks to a very special cape. The piece, draped over her Dior gown, was embroidered with the names of the female directors who had been overlooked in the Best Director category. And yet, the act has been criticised by those who feel that the actress fails to put her money where her cape is.

Amazing, right? The act was widely praised across social media, and Natalie featured on many best dressed lists. But others found the statement tone deaf. One Twitter user asked: 'I wonder if this means her production company will finally produce a film with a female director', while another pointed out that Natalie's company, handsomecharliefilms, has in fact produced one film directed by a woman: Natalie herself.
