THE #MeToo Solution

Sexual power plays at work are wrong, even apparently now for Bill Clinton some 20 years after the fact. Netflix has come up with the ultimate solution to battle this problem, forbidding its production crews from looking directly at one another for more than 5 seconds. Perfect! Except, let's say you are a director working with a young female star who has just messed up a scene 5 times in a row and you are trying to get across what you want. You look at her to get her attention but are thinking "OK, every 5 seconds I have to avert my gaze. How long do I have to look elsewhere? 5 seconds sounds reasonable. Wait, get HR on the phone! Aw cripes, I snuck a glance and it was only 4 seconds. And she's looking at her nails..." And then the suit from corporate arrives to find out why you are going overtime shooting this feature. "Arrgh!"
