Hilary Bamberger is in a scene that focuses on her "The Woman" but she does not talk to another woman. The "1 for 3" assessment is correct.

No character is NAMED in this film. So the film should be 0/3.... even for the reversed test.

Actually sorry. I change my mind and agree with Kyle. 1/3 IS correct.
