The 25 Best Movies Directed by Women, Ranked
With this week's release of Oscar-winning director Kathryn Bigelow’s Detroit, we’re looking back at the best female-helmed films of the 21st century.
From eye-opening documentaries to political thrillers and romance, a generation of women, including Bigelow, Sofia Coppola, Ava Duvernay and more, have brought viewers rarely-told stories from a unique point of view.
These are the greatest films coming from this talented crop of filmmakers, ranked by Metascore.
The third film of a trilogy, Gett: The Trial of Viviane Amsalem follows the titular character as she seeks a dissolution of her marriage from a court of rabbis. The challenging process takes several years and leads to a compromise between the former couple.
“With Gett: The Trial of Viviane Amsalem, siblings Ronit and Shlomi Elkabetz prove that they rank with the finest filmmakers alive.” —Matt Zoller Seitz, RogerEbert.com
