Chick Flicks

movies

Chicks love chick flicks.  This is a fact.  If there's a guy and a girl and a romantic story of love's triumpth over adversity, my wife and her girlfriends are so there.  I'm not a chick, so it's no surprise I don't get the allure.  Sure, there are some good chick flicks, but for the most part they're sappy, boring fluff pieces.

According to O Magazine, purveyor of all things chick, here are the ten greatest chick flicks of all time.

  • Morocco (1930)
  • Camille (1936)
  • Notorious (1946)
  • The French Lieutenant's Woman (1981)
  • The English Patient (1996)
  • The Women (1939)
  • Julia (1977)
  • Desperately Seeking Susan (1985)
  • The Truth About Cats & Dogs
  • Romy and Michele's High School Reunion (1997)

From Queen Oprah herself, there's your top ten.  Six of those movies I've never seen, one of those movies I really, really liked (The English Patient), one of those movies was okay (Desperately Seeking Susan), one of those movies bored me to tears (The Truth About Cats & Dogs) and another was just horrible (Romy and Michele's High School Reunion).  Heck, I have an entire entry brewing in me about "Romy and Michele's High School Reunion".

I'm so glad I'm not a chick.
