I think that women have found that they are getting the farthest in creating their personal visions when they are writing their own material. I co-wrote this film on spec. I interviewed soldiers and put together the material and images cut to rock music. When I gave it to the studio there wasn't that question about whether a woman could do this it. I managed to cut through all those questions by writing it on spec... I want to make wildly commercial movies that appeal to audiences so I see no limitations for a man or a woman. You just need to be a disciplined and great artist. We are in the entertainment business we gotta make them laugh and cry." — Kimberly Peirce, director of Boys Don't Cry and Stop-Loss on being a female director. [Women And Hollywood]

Sure, the film's lead Ryan Philippe, left, turned up looking less douchey than usual, but the rest of the outfits were all over the place. While the models (Irina Pantaeva, May Anderson) in attendance looked pretty smart, those with greater acting chops (Tatum O'Neal, Catalina Sandino Moreno) did not. The full Good, Bad, and Ugly (nude sheer pantyhose!), after the jump.





The Good:
irinapantaeva.jpgIrina Pantaeva looks kinda crazy and I totally love it.
mayanderson.jpgCould May Anderson look any hotter?
mamiegummer.jpgAw, daughter-of-Meryl/up-and-coming actress Mamie Gummer looks pretty!
kimberlypierce.jpgSure, I wish she weren't in a tapered pant, but Kimberly Peirce is unabashedly herself in her outfit.


The Bad:
sandranilsson.jpgSandra Nilsson dress looks, well, a little Emperor's Club-ish.
tatumoneal.jpgTatum O'Neal looks broke.
melissageorge.jpgThere's nothing wrong with Melissa George's dress, per se. Other than it reads a little slutty/early 90's.
catalinasandinomoreno.jpgCatalina Sandino Moreno might be a great actor, but couldn't she have worn something other than jeans and a t-shirt?


The Ugly:
