Hollywood, CA - When asked, "are women making progress?" Celebs look at me funny, but just a few years ago, that's all they talked about. Now, visiting for the first time the LA Femme Film Festival, I was lucky enough to catch up with Actress Angela Bassett (What's Love Got to Do with it; Green Lantern, 2011) and Angela Ginsey (NBC The Office), who were both up for awards for their break through in everything from "Establishment to Image" categories.

So, again I got interesting responses from both when I asked, are women making progress, at the LA Femme Film Festival, film by women, but an event open to the public.
Angela Bassett had this comment:
Angela Kinsey in an exclusive Interview said she was surprised, but elated to recieve the LA Film Festival "New Establishment Award." Broadband Emmy winner Angela Kinsey portrays the feisty, tightly-wound head of accounting “Angela Martin” at Dunder Mifflin on NBC's critically acclaimed show The Office, voted television’s best comedy ensemble by the Screen Actors Guild for the second year in a row.
Kinsey's television credits include, All of Us, Run of the House, King of the Hill, Mad TV, Mind of Mencia and Monk. Kinsey has been a member of The Improv Olympic Theater for the last nine years and continues to perform in their notorious
The Armando Show. Recently appointed the new face of Clairol. Kinsey can be followed on her site. I also posed the question to Angela Kinsey
who responded this way:

Also on the social media panel "How to market and sell your film via social media, and also on the red carpet was Actress Kristina Hughes (Boston Legal, Green River , The Resolve (TV series), who was kind enough to elaborate on
the subject.
