she's played everything from the president to thelma in "thelma and louise." i loved "commander in chief," which was the great series you took part in. it was like my "west wing" fix and suddenly i woke up and it was gone. what happened? >> that's what happened to me, too. i woke up and my show wasn't on anymore. >> were you disappointed as i was? >> devastated. if it was ever brought back, i have the whole publicity angle worked out that it was have maybe a profile shot of me at the desk and say, look who just got re-elected. >> the weird thing is, i reckon after watching that, you were more presidential in that role than many of the presidents i would say over the years, like martin sheen. both of you were very electable in those roles. >> right. >> in your case, i know you've become this great standard bearer for all things women, but in that role, that was doing it for you, i felt. >> absolutely. is that how you felt? >> absolutely. it was funny how many people would say, i would vote for you in real life. and i'm like, i'm just play thing character on tv. >> this is what i like about you, geena davis. you started off to become this woman who is fighting for female rights. you were a victoria secret model. and you starred in a film called "earth girls are easy." an unlikely starting base. tell me about your journey through this weird little trip you've been on. >> right, right. yeah. now that you lay it out like that, may believe it's even more remarkable that i have the humble beginnings. exactly. it was all sort of an evolution. part of what happened in the early days is that i wanted to play interesting and unusual characters. i wanted to have some sort of challenge and not just be the girlfriend of the person doing all the interesting things. that's why i ended up in movies like "beatle juice" and "earth girls are easy" because it was interesting for me to do and then eventually i did "thelma and louise" and that changed everything. >> let's have a look. i loved that film. this is you and brad pitt, of course. >> what did you rob? >> hmmm, well, let's see. let's add it up here. i robbed a gas station, a couple convenient stores, liquor stores. >> of all the movies where you would want to do a sequel, i would have thought love scenes with a naked brad pitt had to be high on the list. i mean, in hollywood people come back to life, don't they? >> yeah. i really -- some people wanted to say it was m-- >> was it cracked up to being in bed with a naked brad pitt? every woman who is watching this is wondering what it was like. >> i know. sometimes i will answer by saying, it was worth the $6,000. >> let's get serious, because you've had this sort of frivolous buildup to the new geena davis. you spoke at the clinton global initiative. and the main kind of thesis i think of where you're coming from is that women are still portrayed in a fairly ludicrous way by the media, female politicians i guess as well. why do you tefeel this way abou it? >> from the reaction women had to "thelma and louise," it made me realize we don't give women the stunt to feel about like that about female characters that often. we don't get to come out of a movie feeled pumped and inspired. so after that, i made my choices based on the women that will be watching the movie, would they like the character, would they get something out of it. and so that's why playing the president was like the perfect thing. so i had all this spidey sense about women's roles already. and when my daughter was 2, she's 9 now, and i started watching little kids things with her, i was horrified to see this tremendous gender imbalance in what we're showing to the littlest kids. i thought it was very disturbing. >> what kind of things? >> well, so i have an institute that's now -- that's a research based institute. we've fostered the most research ever done on gender representations in media. what we found is that in all family film ratings, g, pg, pg-13, for every male -- female character, there are three males. and if there are so few women, it's saying women take up less space in the world than men. so if that's all that kids see is this huge imbalance, it becomes internalized. >> what do you think of the way modern female politicians are portrayed? i'm talking particularly of sarah palin, michele bachmann, but there seems to me, which ever side of the political divide you come at with them, they are treated in a different way to men. >> they are, they are. it is because it's so rare. we have to get to a point where it's completely normal. when i was doing the show, interviewers would ask did i think we would see a female president in our lifetime? first of all, i would say, what censutury are you from? yes, we will. we have to get to where it's just as likely for a woman to be the president as a man. and we're not anywhere close to that yet. and so every woman gets so focused on and ends up representing the whole gender rather than just -- >> are you concerned politically that the most likely people to become the next president of the united states are, as we stand i guess sarah palin, michele bachmann, because there are no democrats circling around. >> you don't mean the next president, you mean the first female president. >> it's more likely to be one of these tea party candidates, because they're the only ones currently showing their faces in this particular face. >> well, in this race, right. >> does it worry you that it's that end of the market? it does, doesn't it? i know your cup of tea. >> i think probably well not have a female president in this election. >> are you saying you'll open your heart? >> interpret it as you will. >> do you think hillary would have made a good female president? >> absolutely. >> is it a regret that she didn't win that standoff with barack obama? >> you know, i supported and adore barack obama and i think he's doing a great job. you know, you can say well, would somebody else have done it differently? it's hard to know. if she had gotten elected, we might be saying barack would have done something different. but i think she would make an extraordinary president. >> are you tempted to go into political life yourself? you've tasted it in a dramatic way. you're making important speeches at these conferences. has it given you a little bit of a taste? >> you know, i liked it very much. it went to my head a little -- no, there was one scene where i've -- we arrive at the white house and the secret service are opening the car doors and i go in the white house. and there was a tape keeping the people that were watching the civilians, they were watching, off the set. when they took the tape down, people were coming up and i looked at the secret service, the extras who were playing secret service guys and thought, what are they doing? i thought, oh, my gosh. >> you thought you were the president for a fleeting second. >> i did. so i said hey, pretend you're actually secret service. >> is it just this magnificently intimidating figure. you came in today wearing these long heels, you're already six foot tall, so you tower over men. so therefore one swoop you are basically making us all feel, you know, a little intimidated. that's an advantage, isn't it? >> i'm not sure that's everyone's reaction. >> i think so. when you march into these conferences, you must get these guys going, wow, okay. she not only played the president -- >> right, right. >> she's intimidating. >> i have a certain amount of gravitas which helps, yes. >> what is the state of play with hollywood and the way that they treat women do you think? lots of barriers have been smashed down, it's not like it was 40 years ago. but where could hollywood still improve, do you think? >> well, in exactly what i was talking about in reference to kid's movies is have more female kashg terse and have them do more interesting things. we found that a great majority of the female characters in kid's movies are hyper sexualized, they're narrowly stereotyped. if the more hours of television a girl watches the fewer option lgs she thinks she has in life. so there's clearly a strong message coming through that's negative. so we go to studios and present our research and i say, change some of the characters to female where it doesn't matter. just think about it consciously. when you're putting together the crowd scene, think why are there so many guy there is this scene? just populate the movie with women. and if you have that many women, naturally there are going to be many diverse types. >> i think the simpler way is bring back "commander in chief" and make people think it's time for a woman president in real life. we're in it together. you're not going to say no, are you? >> no. >> you can start monday. >> i'm ready to go. if elected, i will serve. >> geena davis, thank you very much. >> thank you. coming up next, julianna margolies.
