Walt Disney made a short film with Salvador Dali.


The film stayed unfinished, until was finally put together 56 years after they began. It features a woman, a statue, and other objects in a desert. The only sound is from a sad song and there is no dialogue. The film is called Destino and is somewhat hard to follow.

The woman seems to be mourning something and dances around a lot. Disney has described the short film as a simple tale of a woman searching for her true love. Dali was a painter who is famous for painting melting clocks and the collaboration with Disney is quite an odd one. The project was abandoned after 8 months of work due to financial problems.

78% of Mad Men’s writers are women.


While the popular show revolves around Don Draper and seems like a boys’ club, the majority of the writing staff for the AMC program is female!

The women in the writers’ room give an edge to the storylines of Mad Men and give many of the female characters depth. There are also many female directors working on the show.

Unfortunately, women in the entertainment industry aren’t as common as men. For example, only 13% of the 8000 registered directors are women. Also, about 80% of all TV shows in the ‘07-’08 season had no female writers.
