"With the new
Barbie movie, Greta Gerwig is joining an elite class of female
filmmakers. Alongside Ava DuVernay, Patty Jenkins and Kathryn Bigelow, Gerwig
is one of only a few women to direct a live-action film with a budget of US$100
million.
Directing just three movies, Gerwig has quickly become a household name in
Hollywood. However, her movie career is much longer than just her directing
career. Gerwig has had a unique career, moving quickly from in front of the
camera to behind it.
Although disparate in subject matter – teen angst, civil war family drama and
much-debated children’s toys – Gerwig’s film oeuvre is united by her
interrogation of femininity. She is known for her dedication to telling women’s
stories with heart and humour, and an intimate “indie” style of film-making."
