Amid a bl0w-out commercial and critical response to her $145 million “Barbie” movie, director Greta Gerwig briefly noted the ongoing online bashing taking place amid right-wing circles.
Speaking to “The New York Times” amid a comprehensive conversation about the film, Gerwig was asked if she expected the negative reaction from right-wingers.
“No, I didn’t,” she stated. “Certainly, there’s a lot of passion. My hope for the movie is that it’s an invitation for everybody to be part of the party and let go of the things that aren’t necessarily serving us as either women or men.”
