I love the fact that she often directs action movies and mostly, men. She never got herself into the "girl power" thing, nor demonizes men in order to design a strong woman. Don't get me wrong, I love movies with strong female characters but there's a way to do it. She's one of the few female directors that understands masculinity and real male behavior, including our "softer" side, the vulnerabilities, fears or expectations, but also she knows when certain character has to be testosterone driven. She know how to picture good , noble, caring men, and misoginistic, and violent brutes and everthing in the middle. Most women directors make men like a collection of stereotypes.
i just looked up her credits and she's directed some pretty awesome films. i was very impressed. perhaps hollywood should give women more opportunities to direct
I've started studying acting for film this year.. Back in 2008 I found The Hurt Locker a real masterpiece... Now I... fell in love with Kathryn XD.. So intellectual, classy and beautiful looking, and such a nice voice with so much substance... I don't care how old she is, would date her right away XD
Will go down as one of the greatest directors of all time. Crazy how many people don't know about her and her art. Katheryn was killing it way before all the political bull crap and she is an inspiration and should be.
Joeyal123 Well, you're late to this. Another female director has been chosen. Someone who has directed episodes of Game of Thrones, Breaking Bad, and Walking Dead. Also, Snyder was never even a possibility. He's busy with Batman v Superman and J-L part's 1 & 2. He's only a producer for these other films.
she is pretty damn impressive. super sharp mind and great looking to boot. i could have used a little less shaky cam in her last 2 features but that's just a personal preference.
While you're at it, also tell Katherine Bigelow's cameraman to take it easy on the zoom in/out button, too. Her movies have way too much shaky cam and zoom in and out and in and out -- it's fucking annoying!
I can remember one part of the Hurt Locker - the bomb tech, unable to defuse the suicide bomber who wants the bomb off his body, runs for his life 20 seconds before the bomb detonates......Kathryn then does the intercut from wide angle to close-up on the bomber for the last time, as the bomber says a brief Arabic prayer just before all of his body goes "Boom!" Then we see the explosion and then Kathryn cuts to the bomb tech running and he turns his head - something like we are seeing that this bomb tech is thinking of this suicide bomber as a friend - just before he gets hit by the wall of smoke from the bomb explosion and is knocked out with his Kevlar suit down in the Iraqi sand. Kathryn then focuses only on the bomb tech already on the ground in a close up shot after the bomb blows. The bomb tech finally moves something and we realize that this bomb tech will be living another day in his very deadly combat job. Pretty good filmmaking, Kathryn.....!!! :) :) Oh yeah!!!
Kathryn Bigelow is a brilliant director and doesn't get enough credit!
Holy moly what a gorgeous woman - and of course an amazing director

Thanks for the close ups. God she's beautiful.
She became my favorite director half way through near dark, strange days hooked me hurt locker, hard to top 😊!!! And she's a knockout ❤
This has got to be the creepiest camera work even.
...and she knows what that lense is doing .
Have you met someone more committed?
Kathryn is amazing.
Amazing interview with one of the best directors of today.
Great director, getting her due respect...
She is a really great director.
Holy shit! A woman directed this? I had no idea! This is what a real, "women can do anything men can do" moment right here. I liked this movie
An Incredible Woman And An Extraordinary Artist.
Could you guys pass along a thank you for being a director we now go to in the transition from Art to film please?
This is a fantastic interview, well done sir.
Amazing Director , thanks for the Interview !!
Will go down as one of the greatest directors of all time. Crazy how many people don't know about her and her art. Katheryn was killing it way before all the political bull crap and she is an inspiration and should be.
She's a possible choice to direct Wonder Woman in 2017!
Thank god I hate Zack Snyder films

Good as long as its not Zack Snyder
She's no that stupid.
Oh Man :(
Why is this interviewer hitting on Bigelow? There are enough comments about the camera man...wtf?
Interview's demonstrated issues with women a bunch over the years.
34 years older than me but she could getit.

When Ms. Bigelow asks if you want coffee, you say YES.
Am I the only one who think she's super hot?
She did model for a little bit in the 80s. She doesn't look her age either.
jed52 Explains a lot.
真是先知，道說咱小小自語！啊呀！好開心哩！B-)
不是！
James Cameron entered the chat
she is pretty damn impressive. super sharp mind and great looking to boot.

🤩
Easy with the zoom, guys...
Camera zoom reminds me of
“American Beauty”
BIG RED 1 ! Nice
she s beutiful. and a little bit shy for a holywood director
Tell that to Bigelow's cameraman too. He's guilty of the same crap.
The one I can look up to
apparently you do since you've taken the time to respond.
thanks for giving me a few moments of your life you will never get back
We will troll where we please.

Yeah, really. Sometimes it was very disrespectful to her. Absolutely no need for it. Either get rid of this camera person or make them stop that shit.
Bigelow is in the service of political Hollywood, but her movies sure are well made.
they need to buy a slider
What's a slider?

She's 61, 59 at at the moment this vid was filmed. Pretty well conserved, I might say.
Hurt Locker: the most overrated film in recent years.
