    Where’s the objectification? Is it in the room with us now?

    Are you referring to what she’s wearing? You do realize she chose to wear that, right? She’s a grown up, the patriarchy doesn’t choose her outfits for her.

      Not referring to that. The industry does bad things to women. I figured that was common knowledge. Actresses are treated as objects by employers.

          • Hollywood actresses, check

          • Revealing (for the time) outfit, check

          • Weinstein’s influence in Hollywood during the time this image was taken, very high, check

          I’d say it’s not that much of a stretch, even if this film is highly appraised by critics/fans. The fame and fortune wasn’t, and remains as, not a painless thing.

          check out outfits from the 90’s, this was daring, for a sci-fi action film star especially.

            Was Weinstein involved in that film? I’ll admit I don’t know much about directors and films in general. If he was involved with the Alien franchise, then point taken.

            But unless you’re suggesting that she didn’t choose her own outfit, I don’t see how what she’s wearing has anything to do with patriarchy. I thought women wearing revealing clothing was supposed to be a feminist statement?
