The Bechdel Test

POSSIBLE POINTS OF INFLUENCE:
I think my film opening will pass the Bechdel test because I have more than one female character (the female killer, the final girl, the female rape victim). 


The Bechdel Test is a test to see whether a film has 2 or more female characters in it. These women should talk about something other then men and have a name. 
About half of all films meet these requirements. The test is used as an indicator for the active presence of women in films and to call attention to gender inequality in films.
