"We are no longer doing movies with women in the lead"

This is awful if true. But it doesn't surprise me. Hollyweird has always been very open about its bigotry - Halle Berry once said that she'd go to auditions and be told: "Oh, we love Halle, we just don't want to go black with this part."

I read your post a few days ago, but when I saw this article about Halle Berry addressing this topic, I thought I should pass it along:
