Examples of roles in a Sentence

  1. Jill Pantozzi:

    If you put toys down in front of kids and don't give them labels, they'll play with all of them and I think some companies are finally becoming aware of that, i think the way we market items has changed and will continue to change to be inclusive, but the trickle down from our media plays a big role. More women in lead roles mean more toys of women. And everyone is allowed to play with them.

There is some serious talent in those upcoming films – like Kurt Russell and Leonardo DiCaprio – but most of it is buried in [Quentin] Tarantino’s likely gore-fest, ‘The Hateful Eight.’ These films will be successful if they allow moviegoers to escape and don’t target them.
