These men refused to clap for Jenny Beavan, who won an Oscar for costume design in Mad Max: Fury Road because she was rocking a leather jacket instead of a dress to the Oscars. But look at her confident walk!
What a bunch of stuck up pricks
For real though. 😒😒😒
Men ain’t shit.
More power to her.
IM STILL MAD ABOUT THIS. THIS IS ABOUT MORE THEN WOMEN THIS IS ALSO ABOUT HOW ACTORS AND DIRECTORS TREAT DESIGNERS AND TECHNICIANS. This blatant lack of respect is so vile and disgusting in an industry that is already hard enough on women.
‘How actors and designers treat designers and technicians…’ while disregarding that both (especially costume) contribute so much more to the performance and to the finished film than we tend to realise.
Reblogging again to add in this spot on closing comment from the Sydney Morning Herald (x):
Scorned directors can glower, but with more Oscar nods than Leonardo DiCaprio himself, Beavan doesn’t need to give a damn.
