† NOTE: This is first of two lists based on Women Make Film: A New Road Movie Through Cinema (2019) by Mark Cousins. This list (with TCM premier dates) is narrower in scope and is a complete showcase of TCM's 2020 Women Make Film Film Festival through DEC 1, 2020. My second list (similar but broader), Women Make Film II, is a compendium of all the films by chapter that appear in Cousins' 14 hour documentary. It's ranked and notated to mirror the documentary's structure. https://trakt.tv/users/lezelmaz/lists/women-make-film-ii
†† NOTE: As I developed my broader Women Make Film II list, I noticed that while most films curated by TCM for their Women Make Film Film festival are culled from Cousins' documentary, several films (along with those female directors) did not originate from his doc, and are not included in that other Women Make Film II list.

The Film Fatales, a collective of women indie directors, put together a list of must-see movies made by women.
Founded in 2013 by "I Believe in Unicorns" director Leah Meyerhoff, Film Fatales is a bicoastal collective of women filmmakers who mentor and collaborate in an indie space that's far removed from the sexist world of Hollywood—and therefore all the more likely to make impact.
“At a time when audiences are hungry for a diversity of stories on screen, we’ve compiled a list of recent films directed by women that everyone should see, as well as a selection of older titles which continue to inspire us,” said Film Fatales founder Leah Meyerhoff, who shared the following list with Bitch Media.
Film Fatales in NY and LA include Meyerhoff, Eliza Hittman, Ry Russo Young, Stewart Thorndike, Marielle Heller, Leslye Headland, Sasha Gordon, Jess Weixler and Josephine Decker. Here are their picks for the best films made by women, including "Appropriate Behavior," "Diary of a Teenage Girl," "A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night," "Pariah," "Selma," and classics from Agnes Varda, Claire Denis, Kathryn Bigelow and Lynne Ramsay.
List order:
