the fact that the cast is primarily male that prevents it from being feminist; as Derr (2013) points out, a male- or female-driven cast is not inherently sexist; she explains a one-gendered cast would be more acceptable in a film about an all-male school as in Dead Poets Society or a mainly female cast in a film about…
