Actress: White Male Actors Should ‘Shut Up and Sit in the Corner’

Story here. Excerpt:

'Oscar-nominated actress Patricia Clarkson sounded off on sexism in Hollywood, the gender wage gap and the backlash against the upcoming all-female Ghostbusters reboot in an interview, explaining that women are “still underpaid” and are still “a vast minority” in the entertainment industry.
...
“There are still so many movies made starring 50 men and one woman!” Clarkson told the paper. “A white male actor should never be allowed to complain about anything. Shut up and sit in the corner. I mean, seriously!”
...
“Men make bad movies that bomb all the time but they’re like, ‘Oh well, we didn’t do the marketing right.’ Eat me!” Clarkson told the paper.

Clarkson, who’s gearing up for the release of her latest film, Learning to Drive, also challenged comments made recently by Game of Thrones star Kit Harrington, who said that men also experience sexism in the entertainment business.

“He’s a sex symbol. Get over it,” Clarkson said of Harrington, who plays Jon Snow in the hit HBO fantasy drama. “You have an amazing career and you’re on a hot show. Take your shirt off.”'
