Hollywood has a whole genre encumbered by the shallow and derogatory terminology 'chick flicks', whereas foreign films display an enviable source of strong roles for women. Roles that defy boundaries and genres. After all, why should cinema be divided into entertainment sub-categories deemed suitable for only half the population?
Strong Roles for Women in Modern Foreign Films
Pan's Labyrinth
is a modern example par excellence Air Max Lebron 8, with the 3 strongest roles all going to women. Young Ophelia (Ivana Baquero) takes the lead, her youth and naivety serving to emphasize the horror and brutality of the cruel world around her. Her mother (Ariadna Gil) and the brave servant Mercedes (Maribel Verdu) are also given very important roles which further represent feelings of helplessness, combined with the strong moral backbone of the film.

Big Stars Debut in Foreign Films
Hollywood has brought us stars that twinkle so brightly in the firmament they can shine in sundry assorted roles, but the really strong, evocative parts for women still remain few and far between. Come Oscar night, there are often female nominees up for best lead in roles that appear to be little more than supporting.
