Zero Dark Thirty-Two-Point-Six

Despite the success of Oscar winning(2010) director Kathryn Bigelow and all the buzz she's been getting for Zero Dark Thirty, a film which heavily features a female main character, women still have 32.6 perfect of speaking roles in award winning films. The statistics on gender inequality that this article presents are pretty shocking. 

"If this were a Fortune 500 company and they looked at these statistics, they would have diversity committee working on this immediately...How could you have a company in the 21st century and less than 10 percent of its leaders are women?"
