  For adult women: there's a long comic tradition in classic Hollywood films of 
"catfights" which are almost always for amusement of male onlookers; you could 
track them down with IMDb's keyword feature. 
  A classic example: Dance GIrl Dance (d. Dorothy Arzner) 
  A recent interation: Bandidas with Salma Heyek and Penelope Cruz 
  For women fighting (often with women) there's a very substantial Asian 
lineage of warrior women. 
  Perhaps the best example of that would be Heroic Trio (Vastly superior to 
Crouching Tiger, IMHO) 
  There are many recent articles and even books on the Warrior Woman ripe, 
easily researched with a Google search 
  Many women in prison films have such sequences.
