Movies are one of the best forms of entertainment, especially in the scenario involving a group of girls, a table of snacks, and some comfortable loungewear. All of the films that will be featured in this quiz would, without a doubt, be included on any “Must-watch list.”
But what makes a movie “girly?” The easy answer would be that it’s a film that incorporates love, female friendships, and perhaps some comedy intertwined in them. There are the movies that girls watch to remind them of their own strong bonds with their closest friends, where there is less of a focus on relationships/love and more on the importance the people who always have your back no matter what. There is, of course, the typical romantic love story that also falls into the category of girly movies. These are the ones where the two characters are usually from two separate worlds (i.e. he’s a bad boy and she’s a good girl) but against all odds the two fall in love. Other’s are simply more feel-good and don’t involve a lot of seriousness or drama and are just two hours of laughter.
