Not discounting it by any means, because Hollywood is over saturated with male lead roles, directors, writers, producers etc... and has been. Please do not confuse my comments as defending misogyny - simply saying that i wouldn't lean towards that opinion about a male director just for creating films that are male centered. But I do agree that it would be great to see a Nolan film with a female lead for a change. Cormac McCarthy finally did it with The Passenger/Stella Maris and it was great. Think some of these dudes need to dive into their feminine side and I think they will discover something cool.
