SLUMDOG Brouhaha: Next Steps? « THE HOT PINK PEN

THE HOT PINK PEN is an advocate for women directors & screenwriters, creative filmmakers who are generally overlooked by the mainstream media. Even when their work is noticed, however, it's often misunderstood &/or rudely demeaned. THE HOT PINK PEN is now here to right these wrongs, & help women (& men) in audiences everywhere find wonderful films by women filmmakers.

SLUMDOG Brouhaha: Next Steps?

In response to people who have asked what THEY should do if concerned about “my SLUMDOG Brouhaha.” Please send a letter to Bruce Davis (the Executive Director of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences) asking why Loveleen Tandan, the credited co-director of SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE, is not a co-nominee for Best Director? It’s a very simple question & at this point, I sincerely believe an answer is required. But we won’t get one unless we ask.

Logistically, my suggestion is that you send a fax with e-mail back-up as follows: Bruce Davis, Executive Director, AMPAS
