When I started, women were not getting job as directors, and I tried very hard. I made short films for an audiovisual company that showed them in schools, so then I thought, okay, I can make a full-length film, but I just couldn’t get work. I finally met with a studio executive who said to me, and I’ll never forget this in my life, he said, “Feature films are expensive to make and expensive to market and women directors are one more problem we don’t need.” That was just the last for me. I couldn’t take it, I just got so depressed. My husband, who wasn’t even in the film business, got angry, which is a better thing to be. He was in the real estate business and had syndicated various real estate projects with various people. So he thought he could go back to these people and raise enough money from these people for me to make a film. He said to me, just write one up and we’ll make the film.

It's been a while, and we know you've missed us, but #FADshionFilmStar is back, and better than ever!

This week we are digging the attire of the entire cast of the 80s cult film This Is England.

Their doc martens, near-scalp haircuts, suspenders, intense stares, all denim outfits are the epitome of punk and rebellion.

Stay young people, stay fresh, do not, no matter what, conform to societal expectations.
