Jessica Chastain Calls Out Cannes Films For Dismal Portrayal Of Women Characters
Jessica Chastain concluded her time as a jury member of the 2017 Cannes Film Festival by speaking candidly about a trend she found “quite disturbing” after watching 20 films in 10 days.
“The one thing I really took away from this experience is how the world views women, from the female characters that I saw represented,” Chastain said during a press conference.
“And it was quite disturbing to me to be honest,” she continued.
Say that, @jes_chastain. http://pic.twitter.com/H7QHnEE5JA

The star’s comments came after Sofia Coppola made history as the second woman ever to win Best Director at the coveted film festival.
Coppola was honored for her work directing “The Beguiled,” a remake of the 1971 Civil War drama about an injured Yankee soldier who seeks shelter at an all-girls boarding school in rural Virginia. The film stars Nicole Kidman, Kirsten Dunst, Elle Fanning, Oona Laurence, Angourie Rice and Colin Farrell.
The actress was quick to point out that there were some exceptions to what she saw. “But for the most part, I was surprised with the representation of female characters on screen in these films,” she added.
Chastain’s comments soon went viral, with more female leaders in the entertainment industry celebrating her candor.
YES @jes_chastain YESSSSSS. Thank you for using you voice so powerfully and effectively. ❤️ https://t.co/jqch5aS6gV

The star concluded her remarks by calling for the festival to include more female filmmakers so the jury can watch women “that are proactive, have their own agency [and] don’t just react to the men around them.”
Chastain has been a vocal supporter for women in entertainment, speaking out about the gender wage gap that plagues the industry. In April, the “Zero Dark Thirty” star said in an interview with Variety that she no longer accepts roles unless she knows what the male stars are making.
“I’m not taking jobs anymore where I’m getting paid a quarter of what the male co-star is being paid,” she told Variety. “I’m not allowing that in my life.” In 2015, the actress said she made a fraction of what costar Matt Damon earned for their work in the Academy Award-nominated film, “The Martian.”

If you want to know about Muslim women’s rights, ask Muslim women | Susan Carland
Islam’s patriarchy and western feminism have said a lot. Now Muslim women who fight sexism (yes we exist) must be heard
Within minutes of arriving to collect my professionally bound thesis, I found myself on the receiving end of an unsolicited and impenetrable rant about female genital mutilation.
“What’s your paper on?” the shop owner inquired.
