Poll Suggestion: IMDb Poll Board's Favorite Movies Directed by Women

Intro: 

The members of the Poll Board took a moment to look inward and ask ourselves:
"What’s our absolute favorite film directed by a woman?"
Now we want to know: Which one of these is the closest to your own kind of taste?

Please discuss here.

Suggestions: 

Please guys, name me your favorite movie directed by a woman. Only one.

I intentionally name no user in his/her/their option to give the name of the director the whole space of the option.

List: https://www.imdb.com/list/ls4111408646/

Poll: TBD

No idea how many you want from each of us, but I will list two (which are both huge favorites):

1a.  Awakenings  1990  https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0099077/?ref_=nm_flmg_job_2_accord_1_cdt_t_10

1b.  A League of Their Own  1992  https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0104694/?ref_=nm_flmg_job_2_accord_1_cdt_t_9

Both of these were directed by the late, great Penny Marshall.

I could also list "Triumph of the Will," by the first female, award winning director Leni Riefenstahl.... JUST KIDDING!  https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0025913/?ref_=fn_t_3

I know that you are German and hope that you can accept this as a joke.
