NATHANIEL R in Bernadette Peters, Come From Away, Julie Dash, Sasha Lane, Sir Ian McKellen, gender politics

• Anna Biller would like you to stop calling old movies "feminist" because that has specific meaning. It does not just mean 'has great female characters' which many old movies do
• Deadline Julie Dash (Daughters of the Dust) is working on a biopic about the early life of Rosa Parks
• AV Club Ian McKellen: Playing the Part, is a new documentary out later this year. Apparently it made a festival appearance last year and is planning a unique release of some kind. 
• Vulture an interview with the legendary Bernadette Peters. She sounds like a tough woman to interview but somehow her constant reticence about the question and obvious withholding sounds charming rather than nightmarish
• Pride Sasha Lane (American Honey) comes out as gay
• Show-Score I wrote this piece (experimenting with the human interest profile format) about two women who travelled together inspired by the Broadway musical Come From Away. Hope you like.
