Women accounted for 7% of directors in 2009, a decrease of 2 percentage points from 2008. This figure represents no change from the percentage of women directing in 1987.

"One producer was candid enough to say 'We want to go to a guy."
        - Catherine Hardwick


2% of all cinematographers were women.


The proportion of women on screen hasn't changed since the 1940s.

Audiences, including females, are so used to hearing a male voice that when they hear a female voice they think something is wrong.
