Regina Hall talks about her new film ‘Support The Girls’ and its relation to the #MeToo movement
Premiering this past Spring at the SXSW film festival, the film’s release came at a fascinating time in regards to the #MeToo movement.
Meaww sat down with the stars of Hollywood’s newest female-centered workplace comedy, ‘Support The Girls’ to talk about the message behind this timely film. Written and directed by Andrew Bujalski, ‘Support The Girls’ stars Regina Hall as Lisa Conroy, the manager of a Hooters-esque sports bar called Double Whammies, who is like a den mother to the scantily clad young 20-somethings she oversees. Also starring Haley Lu Richardson and Shayna McHayle, the film takes place over the span of one long day where Lisa’s optimism and patience is tested at every turn. While it might seem like an anti-feminist premise, it is literally the opposite in that it’s about women both supporting and protecting one another.
