There Are Fine Lines Women Have To Stay Within

Florence Pugh opens up about her experience in the Hollywood industry and says it could be “really exhausting,” especially for young women.

In a new interview, the Oppenheimer star shared why there are hardships in the movie industry and why she’s encouraged to raise her voice.

“There are fine lines women have to stay within,” Pugh told The Times. “Otherwise they are called a diva, demanding, problematic. And I don’t want to fit into stereotypes made by others. It is really exhausting for a young woman to just be in this industry, and actually other industries. But I’ve always been encouraged to have a voice.”

Pugh also reflected on the roles she has played throughout her career like in Lady Macbeth and The Wonder, saying, “Well, it’s always been fashionable to tell a woman how she should live her life. Or that the decisions they are making are wrong or too loud. It’s about control, isn’t it? It’s still ultimately about suppressing one sex, and we’re dealing with it all the time.”

The Don’t Worry Darling star said that “most intelligent people would just be quiet and go live their life,” however, she says she’s “a bit too gobby and argumentative” and “a bit too yappy,” adding, “But I wouldn’t be able to not say how I feel, especially when it’s me being attacked. If people don’t want me to be this way they’re going to be severely disappointed.”
