7 Women (sh. 7 žena) je američki igrani film snimljen 1966. godine u režiji Johna Forda, poznat kao posljednje ostvarenje u njegovoj filmografiji.

Predstavlja adaptaciju novele Chinese Finale britanske spisateljice Norah Lofts. Radnja se događa u Kini sredinom 1930-ih za vrijeme građanskog rata i prikazuje grupu američkih i britanskih protestantskih misionarki čiji rad počnu ugrožavati razbojnici. Nominalni protagonist, čiji lik tumači Anne Bancroft, je novi ljekar koji im je došao pomoći, a za koga ispostavi da je žena koja pije, puši, nosi mušku odjeću, i na užas misionarki, otvoreno iznosi ateističke stavove.

U vrijeme snimanja je Ford bio u poodmakloj dobi i imao zdravstvene probleme, zbog čega su korišteni MGM-ovi studiji umjesto vanjskih lokacija. Snimanje su obilježili kako Fordove svađe sa studijem, tako i brojni problemi, pa je Bancroft svoju ulogu dobila u posljednji trenutak, odnosno nekoliko dana nakon što je Patricia Neal, kojoj je originalno bila namijenjena, dobila moždani udar. Film se nakon premijere kritičarima doimao staromodnim, te je doživio neuspjeh. Kasnijim kritičarima je zanimljiv kao jedno od rijetkih "ženskih" ostvarenja sineasta poznatog po "muškim" filmovima.
