Florence Cathcart, the film's central character played by Rebecca Hall, talks on many occasions with Maud Hill (played by Imelda Staunton) about almost everything other than another man.
I wrote and directed the film and am proud to add it to your list.

Agreed that it passes, but you might want to credit the actual screenwriter, Nick - the Bafta-winning Stephen Volk, who wrote the original screenplay and can therefore be credited as the co-writer under your claim.

Just sayin'.

But yay for it passing the text, obviously.
