Mary disagreed with the rating and said:
Mon Mothma, the leader of the Rebel Alliance, was also in it. I don't recall whether she and Leia talked on screen, but there was at least two female characters.

The disagreement comments are incorrect. Mon Mothma only appears in Return of the Jedi. The only rebel leaders in this film are the various generals in Hoth. If I remember correctly, this is the only Star Wars film with only one named female character.
