“It takes true strength of character to redefine your limits by pushing past them.” (Katherine Reutter) - In this day and age, nothing could possibly be more entertaining than witnessing back and forth, needless banters between uneducated simpletons, feuding over “what makes a strong female lead?”. Often times, they point to such recent examples as Rey from the new “Star Wars” films, Diana Prince a.k.a. Wonder Woman from Patty Jenkins’ “Wonder Woman” (2017), Alita from Robert Rodriguez’s “Alita: Battle Angel” (2019 - can’t wait to see it!), and my person favorite, Vers/Carol Danvers a.k.a. Captain Marvel from Anna Biden & Ryan Fleck’s “Captain Marvel” (2019). Whether these movies are good or bad, one of which I love and another I can’t wait to see, they AREN’T groundbreaking in anyway, shape, or form in regards to having a strong and complex female lead. Sorry, and yet not so sorry, to disappoint those who believe otherwise. 😂 To further illustrate the point yours truly has made, here are five women, past and present, whose AMAZING performances in their respective roles was what defined them as being strong and complex. 🧒🏼👩🏻🧑🏾👩🏼👊🏻 They’re as followed: 1) Renée Jeanne Falconetti and Milla Jovovich as Jeanne d’Arc/Joan of Arc “The Maid of Orléans” (La Passion de Jeanne d’Arc/The Passion of Joan of Arc, 1928, and The Messenger: The Story of Joan of Arc, 1999) - 2) Pamela Grier as Coffy (Coffy, 1973) - 3) Sigourney Weaver as Ellen Ripley (Aliens, 1986) - 4) Wēn Míngná as Fa Mulan (Mulan, 1998) - 5) Uma Thurman as “The Bride” (Kill Bill Vol. 1 & 2, 2003-04) #StrongWomen #StrongAndComplex #TrueStrengthOfCharacter #OvercomingLimits #DefiningOneSelf #StrengthInMindBodyAndSoul #NeverForgetTheWomenOfThePast #AndRememberThoseOfThePresent #WhatMakesAStrongFemaleLead https://www.instagram.com/p/BuruG_9jtTS/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=lpg22rgp9h0h
