♫ Speakin' free, wish I could be, part of that world. ♫

♫ I want to see something special, I want to see a Disney princess who talks more than a man ♫

The data to create this game are taken from an analysis of more than 2,000 movie dialogues differentiated by sex and age that you can consult <a href="http://polygraph.cool/films/">here</a>. 

In the case of the Disney movies, of 30 films analyzed, 22 have a male lead in dialogues. Even in the movies where the main characters are princesses, the men still have a bigger voice than them.

Can you guess in which Disney movie women speak more than men?

Can You Guess Which Disney Movie Has More Women Speaking Than Men?

In _Sleeping Beauty_, female characters spend much of the movie singing. Specifically, females account for around 70% of the dialogue.   
In _Pocahontas_, female dialogue only takes up 25% of the film. Despite being released in 1959, Sleeping Beauty's fairy godmothers–Flora, Fauna, and Merryweather–talk a ton.

_Sleeping Beauty_

_The Jungle Book_ holds the record for the Disney movie with the most male dialogue. 98% of the lines are spoken by male characters.

_The Jungle Book_

_Snow White_ has only two female characters participating at any time in the film as opposed to a total of ten men with any type of participation.

_Snow White_

In _The Incredibles_, male and female characters have similar amounts of speaking time. Male characters account for 53% of the dialogue, and female characters account for 47%.  
In _Frozen_, a movie featuring two female protagonists, and one of the most recent examples here, male characters account for 57% of the dialogue.

_The Incredibles_

Women speak 65% of the dialogue in _Alice in Wonderland_. You’d think that makes sense since the main character is female, but that’s not true for other female-led Disney movies, like _The Little Mermaid_, where men speak for 71% of the movie. (Although, it _is_ about Ariel losing her voice.)  
Only one other of the four movies above features female characters speaking over 50% of the dialogue, and that’s _Tarzan_ (and it’s _just_ over 50%). But since Tarzan doesn’t speak for MOST OF THE MOVIE, you’d think that percentage would be a little higher.

Alice in Wonderland

Pretty surprising, huh?!

Good job!
