Heather Graham ponders whether Hollywood has changed – or not – since she started her career in the 1980s. The actress acknowledged that sexism is now openly addressed in the industry, but “nothing has changed drastically enough.”

“No one really thought about it or commented on it. At that point, people thought they were really evolving, and now we look back and say, “Wow, that was so sexist.” I’m glad we’re growing as a culture,” Graham told People magazine, adding that “some of the movies of that time were so sexist.”

He continued: “I feel like nothing has changed drastically. It’s still pretty sexist [το Χόλιγουντ], to be honest. Every phase of the business, whether it’s financing, distribution, critics, all these people are mostly men.”

Graham is set to executive produce the TV series “Hypnotist’s Love Story,” as well as direct and star in the scripted “Chosen Family.”

“I always felt like I was a supporting character in a guy’s story. I didn’t always do what I wanted. But I was following how can I please someone else?’ said Graham.

“The most inspiring thing for me is seeing a lot of female writers, directors and that’s something I’ve started to do. I like cool, loud female filmmakers who tell humorous stories from a female point of view… I really like hearing female voices because I think we learn a lot about the world from the movies and TV we watch. “If we’re always told stories only from the male point of view, that doesn’t help women,” she added.
