The Bechdel Test and the Oscars
This is sort of an awesome video. The Bechdel Test is a little flawed, as she mentions, because it doesn't point out whether a movie actually is good to women, but her arguments, especially at the end, are awesome. Sadly, the two movies that do qualify aren't exactly the least sexist in the world, but they each do have at least one fully drawn, complicated female role, so I guess that's something.
