Pixar films and the Bechdel test

The AV Club has a piece up about how ten of fourteen Pixar features fail the Bechdel test, and only one (Brave) has a female protagonist at all.




The author isn't condemning Pixar or saying the films are all bad because of this gender problem, but pointing out how the company, which prides itself on rich storytelling, has room to grow and expand its storytelling to include more interesting female characters.  


food for thought!
