The belief that women are bad at managing money, lack emotional stability or can’t grasp technical information has no doubt informed executives’ reluctance to hire female directors. Yet, how many male directors have gone wildly over budget or thrown temper tantrums on the set? And there are plenty of male directors who come to the camera with little or no technical experience.
