JUST LOOK AT PEGGY CARTER THOUGH. She is such a hero. I love, love, love that when choosing a love interest for Cap in the film, they chose to make Peggy such an equal not only in terms of her having more to do than be The Girlfriend, but also as a character with a similar history. Steve's story was about being the little guy who had ever door closed in his face, and Peggy was a woman with aspirations during a time when women were not supposed to have aspirations. Not the sort that she had, anyway. But she did what she wanted to and she was so good at it, no one could tell her no. She's fabulous and inspiring and I shouldn't even have to sell anyone on playing her, because I'm bad at this and because in the end, Peggy's greatness speaks for itself.
