French actress Léa Seydoux speaks out about the treatment of women in the American film industry and highlights the advantages of being a European actress.
French actress Léa Seydoux shined a spotlight on Hollywood sexism this week when she said the European film industry treats women much better. “The industry in America, I find it harsh on women,” Seydoux said. “It’s hard for women to age. I don’t want to be afraid not to be desirable or to lose my contract. In America it’s economic, and when it becomes a matter of making money you lose your freedom. I don’t feel comfortable with the fact that you have to tick all the boxes.
Being a woman on screen is easier in Europe.” “I have more freedom because I’m a European actress, which suits me,” Seydoux said. “I’m not trying to be popular, I’m just trying to enjoy myself. In America you have to conform. I don’t want to adapt myself to the system, I want the system to adapt to me!” While Seydoux said that Hollywood can be a tough place for a non-American to lead a feature film, she did, however, tell “I have been offered films very, very far from what I’ve done and I’m like, ‘Oh. Interesting.’ I love to feel that I can adapt myself. For me, that’s very exotic,” she sai
