Melbourne, Feb 24 - When Patricia Arquette took the stage to accept her Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress in 'Boyhood,' she made a brave statement to demand gender equality, but soon started facing backlash for further comments made backstage.
The 46-year-old actress said in an interview afterwards that the truth is that even though women sort of feel like they have equal rights in America, right under the surface, there are huge issues that are applied that really do affect them, News.com.au reported.
