What Is The Bechdel Test?

The Bechdel Test is a test to look at how women are represented in films. To pass the test, a movie has to have more than one female character, those characters must be named and they have to have conversations about things other than men. You’d think it would be easy to do but a lot of your favourite films don’t actually pass The Bechdel Test!
