<p>Mercer: Franklin Leonard, Founder of the Black List on the #MeToo inflection Point
</p><p>I don’t think it’s a coincidence that we have to deal with a #MeToo me too movement situation when only 4% of the films made at major studios are directed by women. Those films define how we see women, what behavior we think is appropriate with regard to women, and I think that if we begin to change that root cause it will be far less likely that we have to deal with a lot of these behaviors. I think we’ll be better equipped to deal with these behaviors. And people in positions of authority can deal with them more swiftly and effectively than we do presently.
