The Lord of the Rings passes the Bechdel test!
I thought the characters had to be named in the work itself to pass
Actually the girl's name is Freda, her mother calls her name when she escapes the raided village
Test passed then!
Lol is that legitimately the only time two female characters talk?
Yep.
And since the scene wasn't even scripted in the books, it looks like something Peter Jackson added on purpose to pass the test in the most comical way
