- Discusses gender inequality in Hollywood, along with the issue that women are typically not cast into empowering, strong roles.
With the information I have collected, and after watching the two movies, I would like to compare the differences in both movies due to the directors. The first version of the movie had a male director, whiled the remake had a female director. I would like to do further investigation on this and see if I can find any further differences between the two, and if having a female director changed the movie at all. Also, I would like to discuss how the 1998 version of the movie is more visually appealing, highly in due to the fact that the original movie is so dated, but also due to location differences, etc.
