"Over the past few years, I have been meeting ever more bright and intelligent women in the film industry whose ambitions are backed up by knowledge and experience. Just 15 years ago, women met more often in the dressing room and among the staff on the set. Now everything is different and I'm happy about it. Felicity Jones, Patty Jenkins are wonderful representatives of strong feminine, worthy of pride for them. Their latest work tells us how important it is to be self-developed and self-developed. I would like young girls to pay attention to their heroines in "Izgoy-one. Star Wars: Stories "and" Wonder Woman "."
The actress noted that for a long time she did not understand why such a strong gender split in the film industry, why the actress's work was paid lower, but her questions were ignored by colleagues by men.
"With age, I see more clearly that the gender gap is very deep and we must try to correct the problem! Unfortunately, this situation is not only in the cinema, but also in health care, little attention is paid to women's health, the state does not sponsor programs, many pretend that the problem does not exist. There is again a taboo of women's themes. "
Reese admitted that healthy ambitions should be present in any person and each of us has the right to be realized professionally and creatively.
"I recently read an article from Harvard University on gender studies. It turned out that many girls deliberately understate their ambitions to colleagues and classmates to increase the chances of building personal relationships and marriage. It is sad! From men who take it for granted, you need to escape! I know that there are men who value the mind in a woman and believe that her ambitions are sexually and abruptly! "
"Men became interested in the life of a woman!"
Recently, the actress starred in the series "Big Little Lies", where the main roles belonged to five women with a difficult fate. According to the actress, she was pleasantly surprised that the attention to the series was high not only among women, but also among men.
"The theme of the series is very ambiguous, it's love and codependence, psychological violence and bodysheying, apparently, each of the viewers found a story close to him. I'm glad that men became interested in the lives and experiences of women. "

"One of my close friends asked me recently, what would I like to change in myself? Probably, sometimes turn off their ambition and allow themselves a little rest. I have a lot of ideas in my head, I believe that each of us carries our mission in this world. My mission is to make the world better and more just! "
