Movies without any women/men

Watched Hart's War the other day and didn't notice any female characters in the movie. How about listing movies that don't have either men or women in the film.

At least two even had significant amounts of dialogue, albeit in Vietnamese.

All the movies here don't have women. Is there any movie that doesn't have men?

I don't recall (I could be wrong of course) there being any women in these two:

Pork Chop Hill - Korean War film with Gregory Peck
Hell in the Pacific - WWII film starring Lee Marvin and Toshiro Mifune

130 roles, all played by women http://us.imdb.com/Trivia?0032143, in fact even the animals used were female, and the art pictured in the background was by women as well. (I knew this because there was an IMDB trivia about it one day)

Grand Illusion. Not even any extras are women.
Papillion?

All those filmed standup routines ( eg Margaret Cho) and monologues (eg Spaulding Grey) have one person in them.

Powers of Ten.

Mostly true, but not quite.

There are women (parents and relatives) in the stands at the review near the beginning of the film.

There are girls and faculty wives at the dance...
Spoiler:
The one the cadets are at when the General shoots the kid accidentally.


I think there is a woman or two in the parents delegation that comes to meet with Hutton's character but cannot remember for sure.
