Women in the Prime

My favorite films that have women at their center, with attention paid to whether the film is about the women or just about a man’s feelings towards her. The former is what I’m looking for.

It’s disturbing how few women filmmakers are on here: Varda, Akerman, Campion, Ramsay – c’est tout? je pense que non.

also, very few american films…hmmm. fuller, ray, sirk (whom i left off)

please list more.
