Jan. 6th, 2010 12:36 pmI'm... kind of stunned, but also kind of not. To quote Opus, it explains a whooooole lotta nagging questions.
I had to understand that the audience only wanted white, straight, male leads. I was assured that as long as I made the white, straight men in my scripts prominent, I could still offer groundbreaking characters of other descriptions (fascinating, significant women, men of color, etc.) – as long as they didn’t distract the audience from the white men they really paid their money to see.
