100 Female Directors Challenge

A challenge to watch 100 movies from 100 different female directors as listed on the challenge homepage created by Germano Dutra Jr here. My picks are mostly just the top rated unseen film from each director I haven't seen, but I'll likely have to swap out some as I progress if I can't find a way to watch some of them. I have seen all the feature-length movies of a few of these director so I've listed either an unreleased movie, an unseen short, or a rewatch. Although I don't plan on being able to complete this challenge fast, if I do get close to the end I won't wait for a new release and just go with a rewatch.

Began 6 July 2024.

Progress: 78/100
Top 5:
1. The Innocents
2. Green Border
3. Hamnet
4. The Skin
5. Never Gonna Snow Again
