It is worth noting that " Greta nominated Gerwig was for best adapted screenplay for Little Women and the film was nominated for best Film.

"What makes it so shocking is that I've seen more inspiring movies of women in 2019, and in any other year that I've been a critic," Larushka Ivan-Zadeh, the chief film critic for the Metro, said Reality Check .
