    Groundbreaking!!!!

    For those who don't want to click... the analysis shows that a much larger majority of films have majority male dialogue than female. The end.

    Maybe not a lot to talk about, but pretty cool analysis of gender in movies.

    Feel like this line from the article is pretty important for some of these movies:

    This dataset isn’t perfect. As with Mulan, a plot can center around a character, even though the dialogue doesn’t reflect it. And all of our data is based on screenplays, not a perfect transcription of a film.
