Format is unimportant…could be anything along the lines of Coraline, Winter’s Bone, Mulan, or Hanna. Sexualized heroines need not apply.
Thanks.
I haven’t seen it yet, but I’m going to go out on a limb here and suggest Brave.
**Fly Away Home
Whale Rider**
Erin Brockovich. Norma Rae. The Rosa Parks Story.
Fargo. Aliens. Million Dollar Baby. Silence of the Lambs. Matilda.
Tangled. Mulan. Hunger Games.
Soul Surfer
The Wizard of Oz
Persepolis, though there are some sexual situations.
Night of the Comet.
True Grit (2010) and True Grit (1969)
The Hunger Games
Um…those aren’t girls. If it helps, let’s go with 18 or younger.
I’m combing through the other suggestions, thanks. Keep 'em coming!
Two film titles I’ve heard mentioned about a hundred times without actually knowing what they were. Good suggestions, thanks!
Tangled, check, agreed. Mulan, why didn’t I think of that!? Hunger Games, check, saw it in the theater but trying to decide if she’s really brave/heroic or not.
I can’t argue that!
I admit I was thrown off by the movie poster. Are you recommending this, or is it just an example?
How did I not think of that? Excellent call.
In my imagination this was an update to The Wonder Years. Good movie?
Thank you, we’ll check it out. And John Cusack will be a bonus for Mrs. Maserschmidt!
Kick Ass
Labyrinth. Plus, bonus Bowie.
