Kate Winslet says crew on Goodbye June were underpaid because she couldn’t get the budget due to being a female director as she hits out at industry sexism

As a longtime admirer of her work, I was really struck by what Kate Winslet recently shared about her experience directing ‘Goodbye June’. She explained that, as a woman in the film industry, she had to rely on personal connections to actually get the movie made. It’s frustrating to hear that investors weren’t willing to take a chance on her vision simply because of her gender. It really highlights the challenges female directors still face, even someone as accomplished as Kate.
