What movies did you think were empowering to women?

For me... [b]Brave[/b] This terrific Pixar film initially seems as if it might replicate the evil mother trope present in so many animated classics, but instead it gives us a rich and complex relationship that humanizes both the mother and daughter, not to mention that it’s wonderfully refreshing just to see an animated film more focused on mothers and daughters than fathers and sons for a change. To top it all off, the film’s core conflict is resolved through diplomacy rather than violence. [b]Gravity[/b] This thrilling sci-fi film features Sandra Bullock as Dr. Ryan Stone, a great character whose strength and capability is communicated more through intelligence, determination and resolve than displays of physical prowess. She’s also a rare example of a female character who is sometimes depicted wearing little, form-fitting clothing without being sexualized. [b]Edge of Tomorrow[/b] Sure, Edge of Tomorrow stars Tom Cruise, but Emily Blunt steals the movie in a supporting role as Sergeant Rita Vrataski. Blunt takes what could have easily been a typical action hero and lends Vrataski a level of depth and emotional resonance that is often lacking in such characters.

  • The Witcher Netflix series actually does a great job of portraying Yennefers character development. She starts off weak, inexperienced and severely crippled and eventually rises to be one of the best mages through years of practice and training which allows her to achieve the dreams she had since being younger and actually fix her deformed appearance.
