Support Women in Film: 2010 films by female directors
Posted by Amy Steele in Film, Women/ feminism on January 25, 2011
Of all the films released in 2010, I found merely 14 directed by women:
The Kids Are All Right—Lisa Chodolenko
–smart film about family, relationships and when challenges threaten the status quo
Please Give—Nicole Holofcener
–darkly amusing film about a jaded New York couple and the two sisters that live in their building, who affect them more than expected
Somewhere—Sofia Coppola
–a spoiled film star gets real with an undeniably sweet, gentle relationship with his tween daughter
Country Strong—Shana Feste
–the challenges of staying young and relevant in the music industry without letting the pressures steal your individuality
The Extra Man—Shari Springer Berman and Robert Pulcini
Going the Distance – Nanette Burstein
–cute rom-com about a long distance relationship w/ Drew Barrymore and Justin Long
The Greatest—Shana Feste
Just Wright—Sanaa Hamri
–Queen Latifah plays a physical therapist who gets her dream assignment: personal rehab to one of the New York Knicks. It’s funny and touching.
Nanny McPhee Returns—Susanna White
Ramona and Beezus— Elizabeth Allen
The Runaways— Floria Sigismondi
–pretty tame biopic of the all-girl punk rock band The Runaways with Joan Jett and Cherie Currie
The Tempest—Julie Taymor
Winter’s Bone— Debra Granik
–gritty, harrowing, suspenseful and one of the best films of 2010
