French filmmaker François Ozon (8 Women, Young & Beautiful) is known for portrayals of strong female characters.
But for his latest, By the Grace of God, Ozon says he wanted to focus on something different: the fragility of men.
"Usually in cinema, men are action and women are feelings," Ozon told NPR from his office in central Paris. "So I wanted my next film to really portray [men's] emotions and sensibility."

But, are not the comparative strength of women and the frailty of men just opposite sides of the same coin?

All churches are run by men. The hierarchy of the catholic church is a political system that the Catholics have no input as to the priests that administer to them. They are appointed by the upper echelon and are on a rotation basis from one church to another. They may spend a year or two at any given church before they move on. The most I've seen at one church for a priest was 3 years. The pope is chose by men not by God. His determination is unchallenged and cannot be questioned by those under him. I have switched from being a catholic to a Southern Baptist. No church is perfect. But where 2 christians meet in the name of the lord.
