The history of cinema is inextricably linked to the representation of woman, and unfortunately this representation has long been characterized by stereotypical role models, objectifying looks and reduces glamour.

In the “golden age” of Hollywood, many actresses were reduced to their outward appearance and pressed into roles that had little to do with their artistic diversity or their complexity as human beings.
