Lorene Scafaria – "Exposing Hollywood's Stripper Tropes with the Director of Hustlers"
Strippers and exotic dancers have been a rite of passage on many a major actress' filmography, from Joanne Woodward (in 1963's The Stripper) to Jennifer Aniston (in 2013's We're the Millers). But most of these portrayals tend to depict the profession as a last resort for desperate women – or simply an excuse to ogle a movie star in compromising positions. Films centered on the world of female strippers tend to fall more in the camp rather than the awards crowd (unless you're talking about Showgirls and Striptease vying for the Razzies' Worst Picture of the Decade), with the exception of the latest entry in the canon – STX's true-crime pic Hustlers. The Rebeccas talk to its director, Lorene Scafaria – incidentally, one of the few women to helm a movie in the genre – about her research into the industry and how she filmed awards-contender Jennifer Lopez through the female gaze.
