AGA Roll Call: It's a Bird! It's a Plame! It's SheRa?

Wow: you guys really dug into that forum thread about your favorite movie sheroes! That's fantastic!

I got thinking, though, that your posts expressed a range of ways of looking at cinema, and I thought it might be interesting to see some more formal essays about your favorite female characters.

So. Your assignment, if you choose to accept it, is to tell us about your favorite female film characters. However, make your essays full: tell us why they are your favorites, and because it is part of the goal of this site, consider to what degree these characters are feminists.
