Classic Films [without wimmin]

[Warhavernet]

Some sorry dude in trouble online with the Fem nazis for writing about great films with no female speaking roles.

The Hill [1965]

The Thing [1982]

Let's have some more.

[Riley Blue]

'The Wages of Fear' and 'Hell Drivers' spring to mind.

[Mr Squarekins]

Sleuth (cast of just two people, both men).

Reservoir Dogs? Women actors, but not speaking roles.

[InitialDave]

Master And Commander.

Was this in an alternative dimension?
How do we get there?

[Skyedriver]

As a group of about 6 or 8 we went to see "Hunt for Red October"
Response from one of the ladies "are the no women in this at all?"

I can’t remember any women in that at all. It’s been a while since I’ve seen it but good call I thought.

Gates McFadden played Caroline Ryan and tells him he is going to be late for his flight.

I guess you're right. They dragged non acting women from cars and shot one of them.

[LRDefender]

Ahem, some good suggestions here but I have to ask if the O.P was more interested in suggestions from the adult end of the gentlemans film genre, think Brokeback Mountain but in full, glorious Technicolor?

I haven't watched either for decades, all I remember is sweaty unshaven men.

Non speaking but the vietcong sniper was a woman.

Anyway... Old Henry

[Granadier]

Quite a lot of historical war/prisoner of war films would qualify, I imagine, set in situations that were all-male in reality.

Sleuth has the name Eve Channing on the opening credits as 'also starring' but these credits were fake, to misdirect audiences from realising the film only had two actors.

1917

There was the woman with the newborn baby in the basement in the bombed out town. She spoke, but only in foreign, so maybe that doesn't count...
