Yes, sexism is the only explanation for why nobody wants to invest into a film version of Hamlet directed by somebody fresh off making Twilight. What else could it possibly be?
And the hypocrisy is really cute, too. For as long as this person manages to make a shitload of money from celebrating sexism in her stupid flick, sexism is just peachy. But the moment sexism stops being quite as profitable, she begins to denounce it. It’s a mystery why nobody wants to give any money to somebody this dishonest and clueless. (As well as petty, resentful, and infantile, as you can see from the rest of the linked piece.)

Hardwicke is simply being a fashionable professional-victim-style feminist.

She’s not a feminist. She’s a whiner. What she does has nothing to do with feminism.

The Hollywood logic is once you make a huge hit it doesn’t matter if you’re ill equipped to make an art film you should be able to get funding for it anyways because financiers see dollar signs. And the funny thing is she did direct an art film before she made Twilight.
“I directed a multi million dollar movie of a blockbuster series that made huge profits, why can’t I get funding for my vanity project? I bet Michael Bay could have made Hamlet right after remaking Transformers. The sexism to her mind is that financiers applied logic and critical thinking to funding her projects and she thinks they wouldn’t for a similar male director.

It’s obviously not the logic of people who invest into these projects. Seriously, would you go to see Hamlet made by the director of Twilight? The idea is ludicrous.

Now that I think about it, the play “Hamlet” does end with four corpses lying on the stage. So it might be up Hardwicke’s alley, after all. 🙂

Especially if they get up after that, looking ghost – like and creepy and start making out. 🙂
