Quotes by Carrie Coon

We haven't evolved a hero story that's female. We're always trying to fit women's stories into this male structure, which is this rising action, this powerful conflict, and this falling action. And I think a female hero story is not...

Quotes by Carrie Coon

Quotes by Carrie P. Meek

'That's What She Said' is not Hollywood's standard picture of women: preternaturally gorgeous, wedding obsessed, boy crazy, fashion focused, sexed up 'girl' women. These are real women, comically portrayed, who are trying to wrestle with the very expectations of womanhood...

Quotes by Carrie Preston

We women often gauge our own self-worth by the quality of our interactions with our lovers. And often these interactions are interpreted for, described for, processed by our women friends. Relationships are the conduits through which flows our connection with...

Quotes by Carrie Preston

Quotes by Carrie-Anne Moss

Quotes by Carrie-Anne Moss
