Last week the Museum of Modern Art in NYC feted Kathryn Bigelow for her body of work.  The event raised $1 million for the work of the film department.

There was not much press on the event which I find kind of strange since this could have and should have been another public moment to acknowledge her work, and also keep talking about women directors as we get into the Oscar season.

But her friend and colleague Jodie Foster came to NY and made an interesting comment about her work.

What I see, strangely, is a real question about male connection—what do men do, what brings them together,” she said. “These are questions that Kathryn Bigelow is fascinated with. That may change—she may make a movie about women some day!

I would love to see her make a movie about women but based on her body of work, I am not holding my breath.
