Headline: Elizabeth Banks recalls being told she wouldn't be able to 'direct men' in films

Caption: During an appearance on The Kelly Clarkson Show this week, the actress-filmmaker promoted her new TV show, The Miniature Wife. In the series, Elizabeth plays a woman who is accidentally shrunk to six inches tall by her scientist husband, as portrayed by Matthew Macfadyen. Accordingly, host Kelly asked the director whether there have been times in her Hollywood career when she's been made to "feel small". "I was literally told because I direct films that, 'You can't direct men. They won't follow you,'" she replied.
