Patty summer sensation was a runaway hit with both audiences and critics.
Next week, Dee Rees will release her Sundance Film Festival hit, the Mississippi period drama Handicapping for Academy Awards is early, but each particularly Gerwig and is considered among the possible nominees for best picture and for best director. While Hollywood has been overrun with the Harvey Weinstein scandal and the harsh light it has thrown on widespread gender imbalances throughout the industry, movie screens nationwide have been aglow with ambitious films by female directors who are beating the odds stacked against them. Oscar nominations change the overwhelming maleness of the industry, where greenlighting executives, top agents and academy members (despite recent efforts to reshape membership) remain overwhelmingly male. The discrepancy is particularly pronounced behind the camera, where women comprised only seven percent of directors on the 250 highest-grossing domestic releases in 2016, according to an annual study by the Center for the Study of Women in Television and Film at San Diego State University. two percentage points less than in 1998.

OBITUARIES PERSONALS SIREN REPORT MARRIAGE LICENSES Female directors ready to topple an ignoble Oscar stat can throw a spotlight on wider industry inequality. severe gender imbalance strikes me as a source of considerable potential embarrassment for the said film professor Martha Lauzen, author of the San Diego State study. a few high-profile individuals can skew our perceptions about how members of a certain group are faring but result in little, if any, substantial change. This year could prove to be unique in that nerves regarding this issue are Long before hundreds of women began coming forward with allegations of sexual harassment and assault against Weinstein, director James Toback, producer Brett Ratner and many others, 2017 has been a movie year in many ways defined by female filmmakers.
Bigelow, who thought her Oscar win would lead to some industry change, released her powerful race riot docudrama Sofia Coppola, one of the four ever nominees (Lina Wertmuller and Jane Campion are the others), became just the second woman to win the directing prize at the Cannes Film Festival (another cinema institution with a poor track record of gender balance) for her point-of-view- flipping Civil War drama But there have been many more, too, including the astonishing festival selection by Chloe Zhao (Sony Pictures Classics will release it next year), Angelina intimate Cambodian genocide drama Oscar submission), Rebecca tender documentar of her father, the playwright Arthur Miller (set to air next year) and Angela Wonder Woman origin story Marston and the Wonder worth noting that both and were released by Megan Annapurna Pictures, one of the few female-led powerhouse production companies in Hollywood.

RICHARD JACOBSEN AND BARBARA ORTUTAY Associated Press SAN FRANCISCO Struggling social-media darlings Twitter and Snapchat are taking on new looks as the services seek wider audiences in the shadow of Facebook. Twitter is rolling out a 280-character limit for nearly all its users, abandoning its iconic 140-character limit for tweets. And Snapchat, long popular with young people, will undergo a revamp in hopes of becoming easier to use for everyone else.
Both services announced the moves this week as they look for ways to expand beyond their passionate but slow-growing fan bases. Twitter has said that 9 percent of tweets written in English hit the 140-character limit. People ended up spending more time editing tweets or send them out at all. By removing that hurdle, Twitter is hoping people will tweet more, drawing more users in.
