of her red carpet protest at the Oscars. The “Black Swan” star created a stir with her decision to wear a black and gold Dior dress that included a cape embroidered with the names of snubbed female directors.
“I agree with Ms. McGowan that it is inaccurate to call me ‘brave’ for wearing a garment with women’s names on it,” Portman said. “Brave is a term I more strongly associate with actions like those of the women who have been testifying against Harvey Weinstein the last few weeks, under incredible pressure.”
In her post, McGowan implied that Portman only paid lip service to working with female filmmakers, but noted that she had only worked with a few female directors over the course of her career.“I find Portman’s type of activism deeply offensive to those of us who actually do the work. I’m not writing this out of bitterness, I am writing out of disgust. I just want her and other actresses to walk the walk,” McGowan wrote on Facebook.
“The past few years have seen a blossoming of directing opportunities for women due to the collective efforts of many people who have been calling out the system,” Portman said. “The gift has been these incredible films. I hope that what was intended as a simple nod to them does not distract from their great achievements. It is true I’ve only made a few films with women.
It must be exhausting being them. On the bright side, I guess we've solved all of the actual problems in the world. Yay us!

Natalie has worked with several female directors on feature films, Mira Nair, Rebecca Zlotowski and Vanita Shastry. She has worked films with Marya Cohn (Developing) & Shirin Neshat, a music video with Anna Rose Holmer & 2 Dior commercials with Sofia Coppola. STFU Rose
Rose McGowan was just proven a fake feminist.
But rosemcgowan got a response that publicly exposed even more of the challenges for female filmmakers - I hadn’t thought of all these barriers before reading NataliePortmxn experiences MeToo
Rose needs to research before she tweets.
Amazing how often McGowan, who protected Weinstein for money, targets people who try to fight the MeToo fight. Like a terrorist picking off first responders.
this is how you respond with class and intelligence. Instead of just yelling and berating other women. How many female directors has McGowan worked with?
« If these films do get made, women face enormous challenges during the making of them. I have had the experience a few times of helping get female directors hired on projects which they were then forced out of because of the conditions they faced at work,” To everyone who
Many people forget that females once had the power in Hollywood.
