The movie introduces audiences to Christopher Robin’s precocious daughter, Madeline, a revised interpretation of Christopher Robin Milne’s real daughter, Clare — a fascinating woman born with cerebral palsy who used the funds from the publication of Winnie the Pooh to found a philanthropic organization that helps people with disabilities in England. With just 2.5 percent of 2017's speaking characters in movies being depicted with a disability, drawing inspiration from the real life story of Claire Milne could have been a step forward.

The book follows the activists who led the decades-long fight to grant women the right to vote and sheds light on how close the battle to ratify the 19th Amendment really was. The book celebrates those who changed history and laid the foundation for the civil rights movement that came decades later.

Susanna White, director of Woman Walks Ahead, says the genre had typically been a "man's world": Today, "We’re starting to see a lot more films now where women are thinking, more powerful people who have a voice just as men have had a voice in cinema for so long."

For many female World Cup reporters, sexism — both subtle and overt — is still a problem. Indeed outside a few more enlightened countries, many international networks seem to still view female reporters at the World Cup as mere eye candy. Yang Mingming, the only women reporter on the ground in Russia for China's CCTV 5 sports network, has generated loads of media buzz back home, but almost all of it due to her “prettiness.” Several fans have been posting on Chinese social media site Weibo about how they have been staying awake to watch the “beautiful commentator” on CCTV 5

One female festival photographer noted that she could not ignore the fact that those 82 women protesting gender inequality were photographed by a crush of red carpet photographers comprising hundreds of men, and only a handful of women. “It's ironic women stood in solidarity and had a moment of silence while being shot by 500 male photographers objectifying the hell out of them,” she said, bringing to light an area of the business that has largely been ignored during conversations about gender equality in Hollywood.

“I want to help women get their films made,” said Vieira, executive producer of the documentaries The Woman Who Wasn’t There and Tower. “I want to make more documentaries and I’m thrilled to have this opportunity to support female filmmakers.”

In the span of eight days last November, two of morning TV's biggest stars were summarily dismissed amid allegations of misconduct and gross abuse of power. Their abrupt departure was a watershed moment for an industry that continues to be roiled by the #MeToo movement, and a painful ordeal for their colleagues, especially their co-anchors. CBS' Gayle King and Norah O'Donnell and NBC's Savannah Guthrie and Hoda Kotb found themselves on live TV reporting on (while personally processing) the bad behavior of the men with whom they shared an anchor desk — and years of friendship. It was the kind of shock no amount of experience could have prepared them for.

The two writers, who worked on the CW’s The 100 as well as the recent Batgirl & the Birds of Prey comic book series, will take over the series with Green Arrow Annual No. 2, before debuting on the regular series with August’s Green Arrow No. 43. In doing so, they will — remarkably — become the only women writers with a regular gig on a male-led solo title in either DC or Marvel’s superhero line-ups, an issue that has been gaining an increasing amount of attention amongst online fandom in recent months.
