Loved: Gloria Steinem’s turn on The Good Wife last Sunday. Check it out if you didn’t see it. She continues to inspire.
Enough already! The DGA reports that there has been no progress for inclusion of women and people of color in episodic television.
Can’t wait to see: She’s Beautiful When She’s Angry, a film about the history of the second wave of the women’s movement that will have its NYC premiere very soon. Stay tuned…
Terry Lawler is NYWIFT’s Executive Director. Tune in every Tuesday (usually!) for her picks.
