Access my analysis of previous Batman titles below:
Bechdel-Wallace Test
- Does the movie have at least two named female characters?
- Yes. Rachel Dawes is back, albeit played by a different actress. New female characters include Detective Anna Ramirez, Barbara Gordon, Natascha, and Judge Janet Surrillo.
- Do the female characters talk to each other on-screen?
- Yes. Anna and Barbara talk to each other.
- Does their conversation revolve around something other than a man?
- Yes. Anna and Barbara talk about the Gordon family’s safety. It is a bit dubious, however, as Anna is being held at gunpoint by Two-Face. Since he doesn’t directly feed her words to her, it still passes but barely.
