My Life in Ruins

Opening this weekend: My Life in Ruins, directed by Nia Vardalos

Synopsis, from my head: αγόρι meets κορίτσι. Ethnic hilarity ensues. The reviews are dreadful, so I won't bother posting any.

As you may know, the percentage of women directors hovers around 9%, which is a ridiculous statistic in 2009 (or ever). It's not (just) that Hollywood is sexist—-if female directors brought in the big bucks on opening weekend, studio heads would certainly sit up and take notice, as might Oscar voters. But how to find out when these films are showing? Well... come here! (Update: Hmm, the same year I start this blog, the Academy nominates TWO female-directed movies for Best Picture! Coincidence?)
