Female Protagonist + Journey Through Magical World = Instant Classic

Whether it's Dorothy swept away by a twister, Alice tumbling down the rabbit hole, or Lucy opening up a magical wardrobe, some of the greatest fantasy films start with everyday women who take that first step into the unknown. And these women aren't just princesses and damsels. They're explorers, adventurers, and heroines whose curiosity and cleverness is only matched by their courage.
