the Picture,” a feature length film
about the dismal number of wom-
en directors working in Holly-
wood.
The film gets a screening on
Thursday, Dec. 13 at 7 p.m. in
Whitsell Auditorium at the Port-
land Art Museum, sponsored by
the Northwest Film Center. A
post film discussion will include
the director of Half the Picture,
Amy Adrion, along with a panel
of Portland filmmakers, activist,
producers and more.
Half the Picture seeks to docu-
ment this unique time in the film-
making industry where systemic
change seems possible and asks
the question if the new efforts to
address gender inequality in Hol-
lywood will be different.
