In Celebration of International Women's Day...
Have you heard of the "Bechdel Test"? How many films we've seen so far pass this test?
1. There are two female characters
2. Who talk to each other
3. About something other than a man
Can you name a film that meets all three rules (including the stipulation for the first rule that the female characters have to have names?)
What do you think are some of the material consequences of so many films failing this test?
