Hate speech is defined as expressions of hatred towards an individual or group, motivated by
prejudice around race, disability, ethnicity, nationality, religion or sexual orientation.
Far From Heaven, the TV series Mildred Pierce and now the glorious Carol rekindle the spirit of an age when «women's pictures» were commonplace in Hollywood, telling female - centred, taboo - breaking stories, featuring exceptional actresses such as Barbara Stanwyck, Joan Crawford and Bette Davis, whose characters face obstacles —
prejudice around race, class, gender — that are no less prevalent today.
