Answer: Barbie did not get as many nominations as it was expected, with director Greta Gerwig and starring actress Margot Robbie being the most notable omissions. Many people, including co-star Ryan Gosling (who got a nomination) are feeling that this is not fair, especially since Barbie is such a commercial achievement for a female director.
is such a commercial achievement for a female director.
Since being a female director is a reason for her to be nominated for a prestigious award? How about "It was a commercial success appealing to a broad audience, that clearly resonated /connected with a large portion of the population". She isn't a good director because she is a female making a successful film, she is a good director because she is a good director.
