I didn’t take her comments as dragging Dunaway. I took it as a commentary that Dunaway did not get the residuals or salary that she deserved.

I didn’t see it as a dig, quite the opposite. Faye Dunaway is a fucking legend but she doesn’t have the economic power to match, and the only explanation for that is sexism.
fuck “class”. she’s trying to make real change in the industry. expecting women to be “classy” while they work hard at things is just another way of policing them.
I think that was precisely her point - that a woman who is a goddamn legend, has no real financial power, especially compared to her male contemporaries like Warren Beatty.
She’s not dragging Faye, but rather pointing out how dispossable women are in Hollywood. Faye was huge in the late-60s/70s, was in films that made money, had massive critical acclaim, and an Oscar to boot. Then, she made two films that flopped, and her career was dead. She has tried resurrecting it - even going over…
Fuck yes, and she is right too! Shonda must have had her back this go round, since Ellen said her loyalty was rewarded. Go Shonda and go Ellen! Get yours, cause you know the guys are all taking care of each other.
OMG. Now this is the kind of honesty and speaking truth to power that gets the power structure where it really feels it: in the wallet.
Her interview was insanely real. Who gets to say that Disney is making too much money so she was going to get hers, and gets away with it! It’s incredible.
“I’m not fuckin’ Julia Roberts.”
Didn’t the wearing black also go with announcing the legal defense fund that was established? I’d say that’s doing something, at least a first step.

People think that it’s only sexism if you’re like I don’t like her because she’s a woman. But no. It can be inherently sexist because you’re being overly critical because they’re a woman or because you think a woman should be more passive or what have you.
You’re right, but I think this will almost certainly be the final nail in the coffin for Woody Allen’s career. With all the actors and actress coming out apologizing for working with him, and donating their salaries, I don’t see him recovering when Dylan Farrow becomes a much larger public figure. Awareness will be so…
She is brave for doing this because she will be attacked mercilessly online.
I (almost) attended a wedding where the groom ditched two days before. Fucker disappeared for a full week only calling the bride’s mother to apologize. We later learned he went “camping” with a “platonic” female friend he later moved in with. No one saw it coming.
I also attended a wedding where I knew for a fact the…
I don’t the precise details. It was a small wedding on the beach. Maybe they signed right after. It was at a small cocktail party that evening, where they had the suite, things got whacky. The groom was not digging how much alcohol the bride was drinking... one of them stormed off (from my view, she seemed fine). The…
Just here for the comments:
Apparently this is a thing that needs to be spelled out for some people. Fucking hell.
What exactly are you attempting to insinuate here? That at some particular age he should be excused/not responsible for his actions? Seriously curious.
I mean, (a) it wasn’t invalid at the time but (b) if she can get the person on the other side to pay more money for a clause that isn’t even valid (which they’d know if they did their research), that’s not a bad thing. Like if you negotiate that your employer will pay you more for having a non-compete in your contract…
