Chick flick is slang for a film designed to appeal to a female target audience. The term was first used in the 1980s a decade during which such chick flicks as Beaches were released. Although many types of films may be directed toward the female gender, "chick flick" is typically used only in reference to films that are heavy with emotion or contain themes that are relationship-based (though not necessarily romantic and may not involve men). It is typically not used for high art, feminist subject matter, or romantic comedies intended for a wider audience.
Films that represent this Genre:
- Legally Blonde
- Mean Girls
- John Tucker Must Die
- Pretty Woman
- 13 Going on 30
- Clueless
- The Holiday
- Thelma and Louise
- Save the last dance
- Honey
Even though these are all classed as 'Chick Flicks', there are different styles; Sad, Comedy, Romantic, Dance and many more.
