The Bechdel Test
Found this via slashfilm.
I had never heard of this before, but I find it really interesting.
In the in 1985 Dykes to Watch Out For comic strip entitled “The Rule”, one of the characters claims that she only watches a movie if it satisfies the following requirements:
1. It has to have at least two women in it,
2. Who talk to each other,
3. About something besides a man.
How many movies do you think pass this simple test? The video explains.
