As I mentioned last week, I’ve decided to revisit some of my favorite classic films to see how they rate with regard to female representation. This week’s installment is a post WWII drama.

The Best Years of Our Lives follows the lives of three servicemen as they readjust to life after World War II. Fred, a bombardier with the Army Air Corps, Homer, a Navy amputee, and Al, a hardnosed Infantry sergeant, find that the world they are returning to no longer fits with the people they have become during their years of military service.

The three meet completely by accident on their return flight home to Boone City, a fictitious town located somewhere in the Midwest. Initially, they each share an excitement about the possibilities that life out of the service will hold. As they draw nearer to their homes, that excitement turns to anxiety at what that future will actually be. After quickly reuniting with family, they find themselves together at Butches, a local bar owned by Homer’s uncle. In many ways, they seem to feel more comfortable with each other than they do with their own families.

While many other films of the time reflected the national patriotism with a fervor never since matched, The Best Years of Our Lives digs deeper into the human toll of war. This film takes an in depth and honest look at the difficulties service members face when the battle ends and they return to normal life. There is no sugarcoating of the issues here. These men deal with PTSD (known at the time as shell shock), anxiety, depression, alcoholism, and injuries that never heal. In short, they deal with the same emotions and hardships that servicemen and women deal with today. There is adultery and a broken marriage. There is disillusionment with the establishment and with the corporate ladder. And there is frustration with the difficulties of getting the benefits these veterans deserve.

Directed by William Wyler, The Best Years of Our Lives features an all-star cast including Myrna Loy, Fredric March, Teresa Wright, Hoagy Carmichael, Virginia Mayo, Dana Andrews, and Harold Russell. Released in 1946, it quickly garnered international critical acclaim and soon became the highest grossing film since Gone With the Wind with over 20 million tickets sold in the United Kingdom alone. It took home seven Oscars including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, and Best Supporting Actor for Harold Russell’s portrayal of an amputee veteran. This film is frequently rated in the top 25 of all films ever made. As an interesting note, this is the first film to feature a disabled individual in a major role. Up until this time, all roles which featured a physically disabled character were played by able bodied actors. Unfortunately, this movie became the exception rather than the rule in that regard.

Granted, this movie doesn’t include any female veterans nor does it address the female service members who served during WWII. It does not include any minorities or any diverse ethnic group. This may seem odd or bias looking back at this movie now, but historically speaking this makes sense for the time. Of the 16 million members of the US Armed Forces, only 350 thousand were women. Only fifteen percent of those members were African American. The Armed Forces would not be desegregated for another two years after the release of this film. Consequently, many areas of the US would not see desegregation for several more decades. For better or worse, this movie serves as a realistic representation of what America looked like in 1946. Women wouldn’t see full integration into military combat roles until 2013.

As such a realistic film, how does it stack up with the informal modern Bechdel and Mako Mori tests? First let’s look at the Bechdel Test. The Best Years of Our Lives has eight named female characters; four of those are major characters. Furthermore, they do have conversations with each other although many of the conversations are in reference to the men in their lives. There is one conversation, however, between Marie and Peggy in which Marie points up to the sign on the ladies restroom and says, “I never pay attention to the sign. I just go right in.”

As far as the Mako Mori test, it requires that a female character have a character arc that is independent of the male characters. In other words, she needs to be her own person. Many of the women in this movie follow the traditional paths available to women during that time. They marry and raise a family. Sometimes those marriages are happy. Other times they are not. Regardless, society expects to follow the traditional path of homemaker. Marie, however, does not hold to that notion. She is unhappy with her marriage and charts her own course. She is the one who decides the marriage is over, not her husband.

I would rate this film as passing both the Bechdel and the Mako Mori Tests.

Personally, I would put it in my top 5 favorites of all time. It is one of those films I can watch every time I see it on. It never seems to get old for me. There are moments that punch me in the gut each time I watch it even thought I know these moments are coming. For my money, few other films hold up as well or feel as modern as this production. The cars may be different, but these men could easily be returning home from any war since 1946.

I highly recommend watching The Best Years of Our Lives if you haven’t already seen it. With Veterans Day around the corner, I can’t think of a better movie to honor the veterans in your life.

As a writer, I tend to spend a lot of time researching different topics for my stories. Sometimes this research is conducted in a timely manner and I return to the story at hand within minutes. More often than not, I find myself lost in a labyrinth of information surfing random pages on the internet for hours on end. It was during one such journey that I stumbled across the Bechdel Test.

For those of you like me who had never heard of this test, let me explain. The Bechdel Test is an unofficial method of determining female representation in a fictional work of art. It can be used for anything really, but it is most commonly used for literature and movies.

The test first appeared in 1985 when the American cartoonist Alison Bechdel mentioned it in her comic strip. Since that time, it has become widely used to show how females are or are not represented in fiction.

The test is fairly simple. It requires at least two named female characters in a work. These two female characters must have a conversation at some point. The conversation must be about something other than a man or the male character.

Pretty simple, right?

Apparently not.

As I began to research this a bit further, I was intrigued to learn that only about 58% of all movies pass all three elements of this test.  

Only 58%!

Granted, as a movie buff, I could easily think of some old war movies in which there simply weren’t any female characters.  Sahara from 1943 with Humphrey Bogart comes to mind immediately. That movie was about an American tanker unit lost in the middle of the Sahara desert during WWII. Since there were no women assigned to tank units in 1943, it makes perfect sense for this to be a male dominated film.

However, with the rare exceptions such as that film, it seems problematic for other films to rate so poorly in this area. Honestly, this number seemed a bit low to me when I thought about films that had a strong female presence.

I soon learned that there was another test designed to also rate gender equality in fiction. Developed by a fan of the movie Pacific Rim, the Mako Mori test requires that a work must have a named female character and she must have a character arc that is independent of the male characters in the work.

Surely between these two independent, and albeit unofficial tests, most films would pass. Sadly, that might be a bit optimistic.

According to the Geena Davis Institute on Gender in Media, of over 100 films made worldwide between 2010 and 2013, only about 30% of the named characters were female.  In case you’re wondering, the latest statistics indicate that as of 2020 women make up 49.58% of the world’s population.

I began to think back to all the old classics I have enjoyed so many times. I thought back to the famous actresses I’ve watched for hours on end: Barbara Stanwyck, Ginger Rogers, Katherine Hepburn, Myrna Loy, Irene Dunne, and Maureen O’Hara. The list can go on and on. I thought back to those wonderful old films and wondered how they would stack up against these modern equality tests. Would they be able to pass or would they hover around the 58% range as well?

Each Friday, I will be discussing a classic film and how it relates to these two tests. I have no doubt that some gems will fail the tests while others may pass. Either way, it will give me a great excuse to reexamine the old movies that I love so much.

I hope that you’ll join me on this journey. Perhaps we’ll discover some new jewels or rediscover some lost treasures. What could be better?

So, until Friday…

All the Best!

A few months ago, my friends and I decided to create character profiles on each other. I’m not sure how we decided to do these. Honestly, it’s the kind of thing I would think of, so I’m probably to blame. It was actually a very interesting exercise, but the most enlightening comment came from my friend, who said, “Jennifer is always surprised when people don’t know the things she knows, but the things that she knows no one else knows.”

That one single statement may be the most accurate thing that has every been said about me.

Before you get the wrong idea, I don’t think I’m smarter than anyone else. I do consider myself to be a relatively intelligent person, not in the sense that I could program the launch sequence for the space shuttle, but I’m smart enough that you’d probably want me to be on your trivial pursuit team. I tend to know a few facts about a lot of seemingly unrelated things so I can generally hold a conversation regardless of the situation. For example, the square root of 196 is 14. (Thank you Miss Bell!) And the Tudor line died out in 1603 when James VI of Scotland became James I of England.

Who wouldn’t want to have those facts rattling around in their head?

Forget being anything as cool as an astrophysicist. Or a doctor. Forget being a skilled craftsperson who can build pieces of wooden furniture. Or something practical like a plumber or a mechanic. Nope. I know that Erwin Rommel’s wife, Lucie, was born on June 6th. Because why wouldn’t I know that?

I have an eclectic assortment of interests which generally have little to no relevance to everyday life. In additional to the random tidbits above, I like old phones, old movies, and typewriters. I don’t like old TVs. They’re very heavy and cumbersome. And the picture isn’t good. Give me a brand new smart TV with all my old movies on it and a fully functioning candlestick phone. What could be better?

I’m the person who would be happy visiting a museum in a new city as opposed to going to a crowded beach. I enjoy learning about new things. I have a never-ending bucket list that grows with each new random idea that pops into my head.

Don’t get me wrong. My train of thought makes perfect sense for someone who is a writer. In my mind, all these strange and interesting facts fit together in a colorful mosaic and for some reason this makes sense to me.

Over the years, I’ve made several attempts to start a blog. Some attempts have been more successful than others but ultimately they have all ended with me running out of ideas. Now, I find myself wanting to reestablish my author platform which, in theory, should include a regular blog.

This quest brings my story full circle. In looking through possible ideas for blog posts and what might be effective blogging techniques, I’m reminded that we should write what we know. And then I remembered my friend’s comment. I also remember the way my friends look at me and shake their heads.

So, I’ve decided to create a blog series titled From the Junk Drawer. I’m choosing this title because sometimes my mind is a bit like that messy drawer we all have in our kitchens. You know the one: the one where random items migrate never to be seen again. The one where three birthday candles, a brown leather shoestring, six screws of various sizes, and a half used matchbook from a Tiki bar at the beach reside in a strange harmony. My mind is a bit like that; a junk drawer of random facts and tidbits.

I’m not sure how this will advance my author platform, but at least it will serve to save my friends from endless tidbits for trivia.

I intend to do my best to make this a weekly post, but I will go ahead and admit that sometimes I can be a bum so pray forgive me should I not meet that goal.

For the four or five people out in the internet world who might actually be interested in my ramblings, thank you in advance.  To everyone else, thank you so much for stopping by, and yes, I really do think about these things.

All the Best!
