I hate how box-office failures are blamed on an actress, yet

Summary

This quote expresses frustration over the tendency to place the blame on female actresses for the failure of a film at the box office, while male actors are not subjected to the same scrutiny. It points out the gender bias and inequality in the film industry, questioning why women are more likely to be blamed for a movie's failure, irrespective of other factors involved. The quote highlights the need for equal treatment and the recognition that success or failure at the box office should not be solely attributed to the performance of actors based on their gender.
