The Girls On Film is a great blog that recreates scenes from popular films that primarily consist of male actors. Currently, the web-series has created about 8 short films from films such as, No Country For Old Men, The Town, Star Trek and Fight Club (the clip above). It think this a great series and brings a great point to the table about the amount of lead male characters that are in motion pictures. Furthermore, its all done in good fun!:) From a Goffman perspective, I really like that this webseries is conveying females who do not conform to typical female gender roles. I think this series is positive for women and isn't targeting men, but its message is that we can play these characters just as much as you!
