A list of all films directed by women to be nominated for either Best Picture or Best Director at the Academy Awards and the Golden Globes.
As of October 2017, only one woman has won Best Director at the Oscars, and only one woman has won Best Director at the Golden Globes. (Two different women, it should be pointed out.)
Only four films directed by women have won Best Picture in any category at either of the two awards - two of those were also the films that won Best Director.

You probably recognize them from their on-screen roles, but these women have also taken control behind the camera.

El bar (2017)
Brutal yet Humorous Psychological Thriller
25 May 2017 - 49 out of 68 users found this review helpful.
I'll preface this by saying this is probably not a film for everyone, but I greatly enjoyed it. The essential plot idea is there are several strangers in a bar in Madrid when a shooting happens right outside the door, and they find themselves trapped together for reasons I won't spoil.
What follows is a tense psychological thriller about human nature, and a what-would- you-do-if-it-happened-to-you type of story line. It's written well, with moments of humor that land incredibly well without breaking the line of suspense being pulled tighter and tighter as the story goes on. It's definitely brutal at times, make no mistake there, but I was caught up in it and along for the ride to the very end.
