    Keira Knightly thinks Hollywood should take feministic approach

    We may think that the Hollywood has done justice in representing the causes of women, but no! According to actor Keira Knightley, Hollywood has a “long way” to go when it comes to women gaining importance in the industry.

     

    Reportedly, the actor thinks that even though there are more women centric films coming out now, the numbers are really less. “Hollywood has a really long way to go. I don’t think anyone can deny that, really, and I think as much as you are getting more women playing lead roles…they’re still pretty few and far between,” she was reported as saying in the Harper’s Bazaar magazine.

     

    The actor is known for her performances in Bend It Like Beckham, Pirates Of The Caribbean and Pride and Prejudice.
