So here’s the thing: I love the world but this film only had 7 interactions between 2+ women, some of which were only an introduction where a man came in and took over the conversation. Sigh…
47:30 – Queenie asks to speak to Tina at ministry of magic in Paris
50 – Queenie asked if she’s alright by Rosier
52 – Nagini calls Irma but Credence takes over conversation
1:12 – Queenie and Rosier talk for one min until Grindewald comes in
1:28 – Tina and Newt let in by woman
1:32 – Tina says hi to Leta
1:42 – Tina asks Leta if she knew who Credence really was
