<p>Oscar-winning actress <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/hilarious-and-sad-hollywood-a-lister-mocked-for-saying-tucker-carlson-haunts-her-nightmares/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jennifer Lawrence</a> claimed during a panel discussion that male directors often threw &#8220;the biggest hissy fits&#8221; on set, pushing back against the idea that women were more likely to let their emotions distract them from the job at hand.</p>
<p>Lawrence joined a <a href="https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-features/jennifer-lawrence-michelle-yeoh-actress-roundtable-1235282817/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Hollywood Reporter roundtable</a> discussion that also included Danielle Deadwyler, Michelle Yeoh, Michelle Williams, Emma Corrin, and Claire Foy — and the group addressed a number of topics from how sexual abuse and trauma are portrayed in film to how far they would go to convince a director they wanted a specific part.</p>
<p>&#8220;When &#8216;Winter’s Bone&#8217; turned me down, they were doing L.A. casting that I went to, and they were like, &#8216;No, thank you,'&#8221; Lawrence recalled. &#8220;And then, they opened up casting in New York, and I flew to New York and just reentered like a stranger.&#8221;</p>
<p>Lawrence&#8217;s gamble payed off, and she eventually got the role — which she and the others agreed may have been in part because the directors were convinced she&#8217;d work harder because she&#8217;d shown that she really wanted it. &#8220;Maybe they were just scared at that point, and they were like, &#8216;OK.'&#8221;</p>
<p>But then the conversation turned to what it was like working with women at the helm of film projects — and Lawrence, who both produced and acted in &#8220;Causeway,&#8221; weighed in on that as well.</p>
<p>&#8220;It was just so interesting to be on a female-led movie. My producing partner and I were the lead producers. We had a female director [Lila Neugebauer],&#8221; she said. &#8220;The schedule made sense. There were no huge fights. If an actor had a personal thing and wanted to leave early, instead of going, &#8216;Oh! Well, we’d all love to leave early!&#8217; we’d put our heads together and go, &#8216;OK. How can we figure this out?'&#8221;</p>
<p>Lawrence went on to say that she didn&#8217;t mean to suggest that everyone agreed on every little thing — only that she believed disagreements were addressed in a more productive fashion when women were leading the discussion.</p>
<p>&#8220;We disagreed, and we listened to each other. Sometimes I was wrong and would learn that I was wrong, and sometimes I was right. It was incredible to not be around toxic masculinity. To get a little break from it,&#8221; she said. &#8220;And it did always just make us laugh about how we ended up with, &#8216;Women shouldn’t be in roles like this because we’re so emotional.&#8217; I mean, I’ve worked with Bryan Singer. I’ve seen emotional men. I’ve seen the biggest hissy fits thrown on set. [Neugebauer’s] my third female director, and they are the calmest, best decision-makers I’ve ever worked with. I absolutely love working with female directors.&#8221;</p>
