New research applies the Bechdel-Wallace Test to 1,200 top films. The results show serious gender representation gaps.
Research employs the Bechdel-Wallace Test to look at 1,200 films, revealing a clear gender disparity.
For those who are not familiar, the Bechdel-Wallace Test is a straightforward but informative tool. If a film features two or more identified female characters having conversations about subjects other than men, it passes the criteria. This simple standard serves as a prism through which we can evaluate the complexity and nuance given to female characters.
This encouraging trend is a modest but important step in the direction of greater gender-balanced representation. Such a change could have unintended consequences that extend beyond film, promoting a more welcoming society that values a variety of storylines.
