complex female characters

Welcome to one of the most used tags on Hypercritic.
Starting as “strong female characters,” this tag has evolved into “complex,” following our internal debate and taking into account statements by several performers who do not see the word “strong” as entirely recognizing the strength, not only physical but narrative and thematic, of their characters. For this reason, we have replaced the much-used formula “strong female character” with the new “complex female characters,” which includes all kinds of strength.
