Enjoy a glass of delicious Boxwood Estate wine and join Vanity Fair Special Correspondent Maureen Orth for a conversation with director Catherine Hardwicke, whose groundbreaking achievements include the highest grossing opening weekend for a female director.  From her directorial debut with Thirteen to the megahit Twilight (which made over $400 million dollars) Hardwicke serves as a role model for women in Hollywood -- where only 4% of movies directed by women make it to the theatre.  Despite achieving critical acclaim and box office success, Hardwicke must still contend with the film industry’s deep-rooted gender discrimination.  Her latest film, Miss You Already is screening at the festival.
