As a woman, I'm super pleased to enter this blurb in my blog. The Sarasota Film Festival honored actress Geena Davis this year with a special luncheon. Davis presented her groundbreaking study abut Gender in the Media and the "See Jane" project. The study is about recognizing the need to balance genders in movies and TV and her goal is to see changes in the industry in the next few years. Mark Famiglio, the SFF president, announced that the SFF and Geena Davis will partner up to get the program into the edcuation system, starting with Booker Middle School and Girls Inc. I can't wait to see what programs come out of this! I will never look at another G-rated movie the same again.
