Sir William said:
The movie features several important women. Marguerite has a conversation with Suzanne entirely about her husband. Early on, understudy Louise tells Marguerite about her brother Armand being hurt, and there are a couple of lines about how Louise has to take over Marguerite's part - while she goes to her brother, so it's still about a man.

Gaurav disagreed with the rating and said:
Marguerite also talks to Suzanne about their past together in school, so the dialogue is not entirely about men. I'd say its 3/3.
