I definitely was feeling that I was unfulfilled and a little bit bored by the things that were coming across my desk.

They are not -- audiences want to see them and, in fact, they earn money. The world is round, people.”

Asked if she had ever encountered sexism in Hollywood, Page told The Guardian: ‘Oh my God, yeah! It's constant!

If you're a girl and you don't fit the very specific vision of what a girl should be, which is always from a man's perspective, then you're a little bit at a loss.”
