Removed the 'Never A Self-Made Woman' entry from Evey Hammond's character sheet. The trope requires that the woman's occupation or interest is portrayed as being due to the influence of a male relative or friend who is more highly respected within the field or central to the movie than she is. Evey Hammond has an aversion to politics is due to having lost BOTH her politically engaged parents, neither of whom is portrayed as being either more recognizable or respected than her. Her father is only mentioned as being the more passionate/reckless of the two, and the reason they didn't leave Britain when the political situation became toxic.
