beat sheet
- From thrillers to sports dramas, female directors helmed many of 2024's most audacious and well-received films, but still remained the exception rather than the norm.
- While women directed acclaimed flicks like 'Babygirl,' 'Love Lies Bleeding,' and 'The Fire Inside,' they only accounted for a paltry 16% of directors on the year's 250 highest-grossing movies.
