For such a male-dominated industry creating a game for a largely male audience, it is impressive how well and positively women were portrayed in the MI games.

Elaine in particular is brave, smart, skillful, a leader, but also loving, kind. The character is not flattened to a single characteristic or narrative function. Even when she needs to be saved, when you get there, she already saved herself (in MI 1 or 2, I don’t remember).
