There is debate over whether my other favorite prison film, The Green Mile, passes - two named female characters do have a conversation, and the brief part we hear is not about men, but most of it happens in the background. (The book on which it is based passes.) And, again, most of the book is set in a men's prison.<br /><br />Part of why I love these movies is that the prison setting brings out a ton of depth in the characters. Their days are routine, and so we learn a lot about the men and their relationships. What makes me sad is that there will not, any time soon, be a story like Shawshank that is set in a women's prison, because women's prisons are for catfight scenes.Mandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14550711135369802796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4202885377377842521.post-31440587237824010102013-05-22T08:03:47.739-07:002013-05-22T08:03:47.739-07:00Reading is personal time, movie watching is social...Reading is personal time, movie watching is social time.

Bones is good though! I should give American Horror Story a try. I started to write a post about TV shows but it got ranty and I abandoned it. haha. I'll revisit it one day with a cooler head.Alihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14399732285678319048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4202885377377842521.post-19684663857756627812013-05-21T15:15:39.967-07:002013-05-21T15:15:39.967-07:00Some do and some don't.

On the other hand, I love sci-fi and bad action movies, and pretty much none of those do, at all. Females are almost strictly eye candy in those genres. <br /><br />I don't have tv, no cable channels or regular ones either, however, we do watch certain shows on netflix or buy them off of Amazon. Television is where it's at for good characters and storylines these days. American Horror Story has a strong feminist element, in my opinion. <br /><br />Women are under-represented behind the scenes in the entertainment industry too.
