Actually, Stagecoach passes all three tests. There are two major female characters, Dallas and Lucy. They do talk to each other on more than one occasion. And their conversations, although brief, are not about men.

I agree with Jestak, though I don't remember the third test, it absolutely passes the first two, and I can't see how anyone who saw the movie can put a 0. There's two women (important roles) that talk to each other, 100% sure, and I almost sure (I would bet some bucks but not my arm) they talk about something besides a man, but that's more specific and I don't remember it. But the 2/3 score it's 100% sure.

This ranking is actually wrong. In the movie are two principal role that are women and both talk to each other about the little girl that one have and about her friendship.
