If they’re not‚ they’re usually passive victims waiting to be rescued by the masculine hero‚ only there to serve as pointless conflict. Hollywood has focused on maintaining

He wanted this interpretation to be based on the body language of his characters and the images he created with the mise-en-scene‚ his cinematography and editing.
