Poll: Bechdel Test

The Bechdel test is used to identify gender bias in fiction. A work passes the test if it features at least two women who talk to each other about something other than a man. Commentators have noted that a great proportion of contemporary works fail to pass this threshold of representing women.

Which of these films best epitomize the ideals of the Bechdel test?
