Why so much hype?

The greatest movie ever made..!

Absolutely brilliant

In other words,this film is a surreal ride.

I saw this in Nextflix (which has a limited service in Ireland but charges the same money) and am surprised to learn I missed the first film.Thanks to the ladies for telling the truth and putting it on film. I've tweeted and posted on FB that people should watch this.I guess, its easy to assume that beautiful people have it easy and that's not necessarily the case. (A casting director would perhaps class me as straight woman who looks like an Irish lesbian nun). Excellent point about tax deductions wrt beauty treatments! Why hasn't SAG lobbied for that??I'm a lawyer and we get type cast as well. Women often do property and probate which is the tougher work, involving client hand holding but also suject to ups and downs. While men often do litigation, which has a longer time frame and more stable. Most lawyers nowadays are women but those running the firms are men. There is nothing creepier than a man who encourages the younger, female staff to massage his ego (ok there are some things creepier but not in an open office). If I'm tough, people call me a 'bitch' but if a male colleague is tough 'he's negotiating'. In politics, getting women to vote for women is hard work and we need to encourage all women to jump the rail. Why don't we support women? Women do most of the work on this planet and have little of the power.When it comes to the money I spend, I try to target women - even my mechanic is a woman (in business with her brother). Books by female writers. Music by female artists. The radio and TV I catch, I only listen to female hosts.As women, we have a responsibility to say 'I will support other women with every dollar I spend'. Then women will have 54% of the roles!

"That Gal" was truly entertaining and insightful.This film is a fantastic contribution to the conversation of women in entertainment. As a young woman working my way up in the industry, this film has help to increase my awareness of the pressures that female actors face. In turn, I feel inspired to speak out on behalf of women both in front and behind the camera. The female actors who are interviewed are extremely honest with the struggles they have faced throughout their careers, but also prove that women can have/do it all! Also, I want to commend the director/producers of this film for shinning a light on this topic and I look forward to their future projects!

I really enjoyed That Guy... and was very excited to learn that the filmmakers were giving the ladies of Hollywood their fair shake as well. This is a very well made doc, the women who are interviewed are insightful, funny and excruciatingly self-aware. I think this is an important movie because it's one thing for us to hear well-known female stars talking about inequality in Hollywood when they are making big paychecks and have their names above the titles. But it's a wholly different thing to hear from the women who have been working their butts off in Hollywood and are barely known. If you don't recognize who most of these women are I think it proves the point. They are literally in every thing and have been for a long time. Because they are not Gwyneth or Sandra, Julia or Jennifer doesn't mean they should be invisible. It doesn't make their stories or their work any less valid. The men and women featured in these documentaries are the backbone of the industry and we should be paying more attention to them. Bravo!

Having seen most of these ladies in many shows and movies over the years (especially Roma Maffia, Catherine Hicks, and Alicia Coppola), it was a pleasure to spend some time with them hearing about their experiences, both good and bad, in the business.Acting seems to be an uphill profession for either gender, but this documentary brought home the fact that women deal with even more hurdles than their male counterparts (timing pregnancies, even greater pressure about aging, whether or not to help nature out with plastic surgery). These women are true survivors - the real mark of success is longevity - and it's nice to see the spotlight on them for a change.
