Another piece I wasn't going

Another piece I wasn't going to post... this is a Salon article (by Michelle Goldberg, which is largely what got me there) about why 96% of movies are still directed by men, in this day and age. Much more interesting, and much less vague and petulant than I expected. Interesting points: one reason is that there is still no tradition of the female auteur, and another is that big producers seem to misconstrue the wheeling-dealing phase of a female director selling them on their movie idea as a come-on.
