Matches all tests. The main character, Charlotte (Bette Davis) goes to a sanitarium, and over the course of the film goes from a shut-in at the edge of a nervous breakdown to a self-confident heiress with an adopted daughter. The women who talk are many; I'll only list Charlotte's examples.

Charlotte & mom
Charlotte & Tina
Charlotte & her sister
Charlotte & Dora Pickford
Charlotte & minor characters

Very little to none of this is about men.
