Hot on the heels of being named Best Film of the Year by the African American Film Critics Association (AAFCA), “The Woman King” has scored another honor. Gina Prince-Bythewood’s blockbuster about an all-female army of warriors is among the AFI’s 10 best films of 2022.

Three of 10 films are directed by women this year. Joining “The Woman King” are Sarah Polley’s “Women Talking” and Maria Schrader’s “She Said.” The former tells the story of women in a remote religious community dealing with the aftermath of a series of sexual assaults, and the latter revisits how New York Times reporters Megan Twohey and Jodi Kantor broke the Harvey Weinstein story
