"In honor of our friend reneeelisegoldsberry whose documentary "Satisfied" premieres at The Tribeca Film Festival this weekend, we flashback to a scene from OLTL. Either John McBain was the least sensible character I ever played (who wouldn't commit to this girl?) or this is one of the better jobs of acting I ever did (because no one should believe you'd let her walk out the door). For her part, Renee was deservedly nominated for an Emmy (mostly for being brilliant but also for having to put up with me for two years) and the entire time I worked with her I knew she was destined to do amazing things with her life and she has. Sending love and congratulations."

It annoys me when people say Hamilton doesn't have enough feminism in it and that the women in it aren't "strong enough".
Are you kidding me?
All four main women in the musical represent a different type of feminism.
Angelica Schuyler represents the rebellious type of feminism; she's the one that blatantly resists oppression and refuses to be ruled by men's opinions.
She stood up to Aaron Burr, thus creating her own revolution against prejudice and sexism.
She shows that sometimes, to be strong is to stand up for yourself.
Elizabeth Schuyler represents the supporting type of feminism; she's the one that listens to other people, always giving them a shoulder to cry on in their hardest times.
She comforted Alexander when he was worried she'd leave him because of his lack of money, saying that she doesn't need more than just him being alive.
She shows that sometimes, to be strong is to show kindness to those who need it.
Peggy Schuyler represents the quiet type of feminism; she's the one that follows rules and listens to her father without asking questions, nudging her sisters to go back home (which she does to keep the three of them safe), but is also helping her sisters out whenever she can.
She kept Laurens out of the way at the winter ball so Eliza could have her chance at finding love with Alexander.
She shows us that sometimes, to be strong is to help the people you care about, even if they don't always know or appreciate it.
Maria Reynolds represents the misunderstood type of feminism; she's the one who is being constantly hurt and torn down by a man, but is still begging to be saved by another man, and then being victim-blamed for it.
She silently endured abuse to keep her daughter, who is not mentioned in he musical, safe.
She shows that sometimes, to be strong is to know when to be weak.
Hamilton is full of feminism, not to mention the fact that the musical ends with Elizabeth Schuyler being the reason people still know about Alexander Hamilton and his legacy, more than 200 years after his death.
All thanks to a woman.
