'However abysmal the numbers are in real life, it's far worse in fiction - where you make it up!' HonoraryOscars Via Reuters
LOS ANGELES, Oct 27 - Actress Geena Davis urged Hollywood filmmakers to take new steps to address an ongoing gender imbalance in media as she accepted an honorary Oscar on Sunday for her work to promote more women on screen.
"However abysmal the numbers are in real life, it's far worse in fiction - where you make it up!" said Davis as she accepted the Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award."We make it worse." Davis, who won a supporting actress Oscar in 1989 for"The Accidental Tourist," said gender inequality on screen"can be fixed absolutely overnight."
"With one stroke, you have created some non-stereotyped characters that might turn out to be even more interesting now that they have a gender swap," she said.Other honorees were Wes Studi, who was recognized for his commitment to authentic portrayals of Native Americans in films from"Dances with Wolves" to"The Last of the Mohicans," and"Blue Velvet" filmmaker David Lynch.
