Watching La La Land as a family, he picked apart the group of exceptionally thin young women Emma Stone lives with at the start: 'Oh that one needs to lose at least a stone if she thinks she's going to make it in Hollywood…'.

Of course this perpetuates the notion that it's all women's fault, but I do wonder if his compulsive need to judge women came from her.
