It just occurred to me that Hathaway's quote was probably fed to her by a publicist because it brings up the issue of female empowerment, which loosely relates to her new, which she's making the rounds promoting.
It's called "The Intern" and was written and directed by a woman, Nancy Myers. The plot: "Jules Ostin (Anne Hathaway), the founder and CEO of a fashion based e-commerce company, agrees to a community outreach program where a senior, Ben Whittaker (Robert De Niro), will intern at the firm."
This looks to me like the film version of those "men are obsolete" articles that were polluting mags and newspapers a few years ago.
Whenever a star says anything these days, the real story can usually be told by whatever they're trying to push. Madonna invented the "make your every word self-promotion" concept and it's stuck. It's no longer the '60s where the Beatles or Hendrix would just spout off about whatever was on their mind.
