Actress and writer Natalie Walker creates hilarious impressions of Hollywood sexism and stereotypical roles for women in the film industry. Natalie Walker isn't doing specific impressions of Emilia Clarke, Kristen Wiig, or Anne Hatahaway, but rather she lampoons typical characters women are often asked to play on screen.

Walker: ' I am just a huge. Oscars buff. The year before it had been. Keira Knightley and Felicity Jones in The Imitation Game and The Theory of Everything and so you kept seeing sort of the same Oscars for your consideration clip of both of them and those are two incredible actresses sort of at the top of their game already and they've continued to do amazing work since then. But it's like still they were in service of these dudes getting the showcase pieces and even like their biggest moments in their movies were about supporting the the man.'

Only 49% of Oscar Best Picture winners from 1929-2017 have passed the Bechdel Test, which requires 2 named women to speak to each other about something other than a man.
