Seeing the Cinematography winner ask every woman in the ballroom to stand up tonight was the most powerful moment I’ve witnessed in years. People complain that these awards ceremonies are just about individual egos, but this was about collective visibility. For a woman to win for a gritty blockbuster like ‘Sinners’ and immediately use her platform to highlight the struggle and success of her female peers is exactly what the industry needs. It was a demand to be seen in a field traditionally dominated by men. When she said she wouldn't be there without them, it grounded the individual achievement in community. It’s about time we stop pretending merit happens in a vacuum and acknowledge the barriers broken by those standing up. Absolutely historic and deeply moving. #culture #film #feminism https://thoxt.com/l/nSZzyn 🔗
