For The Ladies
Favs/dislikes: 25:1. Awesome movies with positive portrayals of women in lead roles, from goofy comedies to badass action flicks. Many pass the Bechdel Test, but not all, and many of them feature female writers and/or directors. This list is determined by the personal tastes of Alexandra Kittle, blogger at http://www.filmforager.com. Enjoy! -
Feminist-Minded Films
Favs/dislikes: 9:0. "As a feminist film theorist and avid moviegoer, my main, geeky goal in life is to see as many female-driven films as possible from every decade, country, and genre imaginable. I’m sure this list won’t please everybody, and you may disagree with my choices, but I tried to be as diplomatic as possible and to keep the list diverse. I certainly haven’t seen every single women’s picture though. The films on this list may not all be widely acclaimed or even directly feminist films, but what some of them may lack in aesthetic pleasures or political correctness is made up tenfold by their feminine bravura and radiant characters. From 1910 to the present, these are the absolute best, most emblematic women’s pictures I’ve ever seen." -

Movies that fail the Bechdel Test
Favs/dislikes: 3:3. The Bechdel Test, or Bechdel-Wallace Test, sometimes called the Mo Movie Measure or Bechdel Rule is a simple test which names the following three criteria: (1) it has to have at least two women in it, (2) who talk to each other, (3) about something besides a man. Currently, there are 8787 movies in the bechdeltest.com database, 894 of them score 0 out of 3 on the test. These are listed here (sorted from newest to oldest). Last update: March 3rd 2021.
