Nope-rah

I sent in the following tip to Jezebel.com today:

Not sure how timely this is, but I caught part of the Oprah Winfrey Show yesterday, with many of the actors from NINE, and although it features multiple Academy Award winning and nominated women, a lot of the initial banter was about what a genius Daniel Day Lewis is. The similarly talented actresses on the stage did not seem to be getting much respect, much respect at all. The questions to the women were along the lines of, "So...Nicole Kidman, what's it like to be married to Keith Urban? Did you bring your baby to the set?" "So, Kate Hudson, you're dating A-Rod. What's that like?" "So, women, what's it like to work with the great Daniel Day Lewis?"

It was interesting, I thought. Also interesting is how all of these super-talented actresses are starring in this movie together, but the entire plot revolves around the male character.
