Today we’re kicking off our rebooted “Lady Bits” segment with a topic on women in film. We’re gonna dig into all the controversy that came to the surface following Uma Thurman’s interview about her experiences working with Quentin Tarantino on “Kill Bill”, and we discuss whether the concept of the all-powerful “auteur” director breeds an environment ripe for abuse on set. Let’s get into it! With special guest, Jackie Costello.
