If last November wasn’t about cracking a glass ceiling, then this summer might be. As of this weekend, the cinematic smash Wonder Woman has raked in a cool $435 million in worldwide box office, making it the hottest start for a film directed by a woman (that would be Patty Jenkins). Over the past decade, women have directed less than one in twenty of the annual top 100 films at the box office. She made arguably the worst tactical wager since a woman on the other side of the Atlantic decided to house a server in her private residence. This isn’t to suggest that the glass isn’t half-empty for women.
