Cate Blanchett has called for a change in the \u0022structure\u0022 of awards ceremonies.
We apologize, but this video has failed to load.“It’s like what is this patriarchal pyramid where someone stands up here. Why don’t we just say there was a whole raft of female performances that are in concert and in dialogue with one another?“Because, can I tell you, every single woman with a television, film, advertising, tampon commercials – whatever – you’re all out there doing amazing work that is inspiring me continually.
Acknowledging it is a “very provocative” film, she said: “There’s no right or wrong responses to works of art. It’s not a film about conducting, and I think that the circumstances of the character are entirely fictitious. “I looked at so many different conductors, but I also looked at novelists and visual artists, and musicians of all stripes. It’s a very non-literal film.
“I don’t think you could have talked about the corrupting nature of power in as nuanced a way as [writer/director] Todd Field has done as a filmmaker if there was a male at the centre of it because we understand so absolutely what that looks like. “I think that power is a corrupting force, no matter what one’s gender is. I think it affects all of us.”
