It’s weird being a woman on the Internet. Over the weekend, a post from an X account called World of Statistics went viral, for sharing a “fun fact” about the 1994 movie The Shawshank Redemption. As the tweet reads, “there are only two female speaking roles, totaling about 10 seconds in a 2 hours and 22 minutes film.”
As plenty of comments pointed out, this is largely a byproduct of the film literally being set at a men’s prison, during an era when the staff and orderlies were largely segregated by gender. But the tweet went viral, in part, because certain men online took it as an opportunity to celebrate movies with little-to-no speaking roles for women. Writer and TV host Chris Gore, in particular, tweeted “John Carpenter’s The Thing is 1 hour 49 minutes and has zero female speaking roles.”
