Terry’s Picks: Gun Control, Gina Prince-Bythewood, Ashley Judd

Loved
it:
Watch out for NYWIFT member Abigail Disney’s amazing film The
Armor Of Light
, which I saw at the Hamptons International Film
Festival. It brings the issue of gun control to a whole other level.

Congrats,
Gina
: Gina Prince-Bythewood, one of the mentors from our Writers
Lab, will write and executive produce an
event series about a police shooting
for Fox.

Speaking
out:
Ashley Judd revealed that she was sexually
harassed by a studio mogul
while shooting Kiss the Girls. Bravo to women like Judd for bringing these issues
to light.
