Bechdel Test Movie List

There are no named female characters in this film.

while i agree that yes there are no women it is important to note that there weren't women in the incident in which the movie is based on.

There's a briefly-appearing female character named Stephanie (she misses her husband's call home).

That doesn't matter. The whole point of this site is to look, overall, at the kinds of movies made and how many of them have named female characters and what they do when they're on screen (at least in terms of conversation). To disagree with the rating for the reasons stated is incorrect.

To pass at least one of the tests, the movie needs at least two named female characters, not just one. So I don't know why you disagreed with the rating.

I believe a major reason people are disagreeing with the rating is because many people say that the Bechdel Test is a requirement for a movie to be acceptable in culture, and that this movie holds significance and is in a setting that makes it meaningless to even think the test should be passable.
