And "The Great Escape" and "Reservoir Dogs" have no female speaking parts, whereas many movies such as "Bridesmaids" and "Pitch Perfect" are heavily female and only feature males in small supporting roles. What does it matter?3PO has more lines than Leia in ANH. The movie really just has two women in the entire movie (Beru and Leia).
Saying that a film is great because it features an equal amount of lines spoken by genders is meaningless praise. And if that agenda was a criteria set by Kennedy that took precedence over telling satisfying and enjoyable story, then that is a massive problem. These kind of priorities automatically put a stifle on creativity.
Diversity should never be a need for a film. The only need should be to make a good movie, regardless of who is in it. That is all the audience cares about.
