Golden Globes criticised for all-male director nominees

The Golden Globes has released its list of nominees for Best Director, and it's been criticised for featuring no women, again.

 

Since 2000, the awards show has nominated more than 100 men for the category, and only four women.

 

These figures aren't rare, with the Oscars nominating only three women for Best Director in the past 20 years, compared with 87 men.

 

This isn't the first time the Golden Globes have faced backlash over their nominations list.

if they put 50% women, someone would complain there are not enough katooeys.

And if they added Katooeys, someone would complain not enough persons with disabilities. No goddamn winning.

Simplest explanation is that women don't make good directors.

The Hurt Locker is about the only good film directed by a woman that I remember.
