Most Popular and Highest Rated Films by Essential Women Directors In March 2025, in celebration of Women's History Month, I created a thread of essential women directors. The list below includes the highest-rated and most popular film of every director in that threa...

It’s #FemaleFilmmakerFriday and I'm continuing to fill in #DirectedByWomen filmography gaps on this list. Only a couple more left! Tonight's selection is LES PLAGES D'AGNÈS (THE BEACHES OF AGNES) (2008) by Agnès Varda. This is Varda's highest-rated film on Letterboxd. #52FilmsByWomen #24 #Filmsky 📽️

It’s #FemaleFilmmakerFriday and I'm filling in #DirectedByWomen filmography gaps for #WomensHistoryMonth. Tonight's selection is ONE DAY (2011) by Lone Scherfig. I love her work and this is her most popular film but I avoided it till now because I loved the book so much. #52FilmsByWomen #23 #Filmsky

Cathy and Edgar have their own Mad Hatter's tea party in WUTHERING HEIGHTS

For this #FemaleFilmmakerFriday I've gone back to the 19th-century Brit lit well of two weeks ago. I've also gone back to the theater—finally!—to see my first 2026 films. First up was "WUTHERING HEIGHTS" (2026) by Emerald Fennell. The quotation marks are warranted. #52FilmsByWomen #21 #Filmsky 📽️🎬

Red Crescent operators standing by in THE VOICE OF HIND RAJAB

It's hard to treat this like just any other film, but tonight's #FemaleFilmmakerFriday selection and the last film of my #OscarBlitz is THE VOICE OF HIND RAJAB (2025) by Kaouther Ben Hania. Powerful and necessary. #WomensHistoryMonth #DirectedByWomen #52FilmsByWomen #20 #Filmsky 📽️

Elle Fanning is Mary Shelley in MARY SHELLEY

The bottom half of tonight's Regency double feature is MARY SHELLEY (2017) by Haifaa al-Mansour, director of my beloved WADJDA. Again, per Letterboxd, this is her most popular film. I figure it can't be any worse than GdT's FRANKENSTEIN. #FemaleFilmmakerFriday #52FilmsByWomen #19 #Filmsky 📽️

Fanny Price breaks the fourth wall in MANSFIELD PARK.

It's #FemaleFilmmakerFriday and for #WomensHistoryMonth I'm filling in #DirectedByWomen filmography gaps. Tonight's focus is on the Regency era. First up was MANSFIELD PARK (1999) by Patricia Rozema. Unsurprisingly, per Letterboxd, this delight is her most popular film. #52FilmsByWomen #18 #Filmsky

If you are looking for a director to focus on this #WomensHistoryMonth look no further than my 2025 thread on the subject. This year, I'll be using #FemaleFilmmakerFriday to fill in the filmography gaps I found while creating that thread, including films by Scherfig, Sciamma, and Varda. #Filmsky 📽️

It’s #FemaleFilmmakerFriday! To make up for a week with no film viewing, tonight is a Criterion 1990s #BlackHistoryMonth double feature. First up is ALMA’S RAINBOW (1992) by Ayoka Chenzira. Among other things, this is fantastic Brooklyn brownstone porn. And the colors! #52FilmsByWomen #10 #Filmsky 📽️

Tonight’s #FemaleFilmmakerFriday selection was chosen by The Math Greek: LOVE SERENADE (1996) by Shirley Barrett. Miranda Otto, fantastic needle drops, the buttery voice of George Shevtsov, and one heck of an ending. #DirectedByWomen #52FilmsByWomen #9 #Filmsky 📽️

River Phoenix and Lili Taylor visit an arcade in DOGFIGHT.

It’s #FemaleFilmmakerFriday! Tonight’s selection was DOGFIGHT (1991) by Nancy Savoca. I was a bit dubious based on the premise, but this film starring River Phoenix and Lili Taylor is really quite lovely. Heads up! It leaves Criterion tomorrow. #52FilmsByWomen #6 #Filmsky 📽️

This #FemaleFilmmakerFriday is dedicated to my Oscar Blitz. I hadn’t realized KPOP DEMON HUNTERS (2025) was co-directed by a woman (Maggie Kang) until I was going through the nominations list. It’s up for both Animated Feature and Original Song. #52FilmsByWomen #3 #Filmsky

In honor of #FemaleFilmmakerFriday, I rewatched BABYGIRL (2024). It turned out to be even less Christmasy than I remembered—one of those movies where it's pointedly the season but there's almost no Christmas trappings or mention of the holiday. #AdventWatch #6 #DirectedByWomen #Filmsky 📽️
