February 2, 2018: Films by Women Opening This Week

Let’s hear it for women editors! The only two films to make the list this week are on their because of their editors.

Here are the films opening this week that have a woman in a major decision-making creative role in the project (producer, director, writer, editor). I have listed the women in these roles on the film.

If you know of others films opening this weekend that fit the criteria that I missed, please share them with #halfthescreen.

A Fantastic Woman (Editor: Soledad Salfate)
