The Mighty Chick Flicks
Women's pictures used to be guilty pleasures: No more! Now they're kicking butt, getting respect, and grossing huge. From frothy romances to action to whale-riding adventures, these films show us who we are, where we've been, what we can take, and better yet, what we can dish out.

Boom: Talking About The Sixties
Enchanted April
It was one of those films that appeal definitely to females more than males, but it wasn't your typical 'girlie' film. It was really funny, and it was one of those films that touch some place in your heart (even though you know in your head that it's a fairytale and not real - some part of you still wishes that somehow it would be wonderful if fairy tales like that could come true).

"With movies like Chocolat, it's always best to relax your intellectual faculties and absorb the abundant sensual pleasures, be it the heart-stopping smile of chocolatier Juliette Binoche as she greets a new customer, an intoxicating cup of spiced hot cocoa, or the soothing guitar of an Irish gypsy played by Johnny Depp."

Chick Flicks Description
In general, 'chick flicks' - as they are known collequially (although in earlier times, they were called 'women's pictures' with melodramatic themes), appeal more to the stereotypical interests of women than men. They are often romantic comedies, tearjerkers with female characters, Cinderella-like 'fairy tales' about finding love, or tales of feminine bonding (with lots of talky dialogue).

What Makes A Film A Chick Flick for Boomers?
Peter Bart, Variety Columnist, Fri., May 9, 2008, writes
I've always thought -- perhaps simplistically -- that a chick flick is, basically, a good date film. The difference is that it's the girl who motivates her guy to buy the ticket. For this summer's films he mentions "Mamma Mia" and "Sex and the City".
I totally disagree! To me a Chick Flick is a film you watch WITHOUT your date/husband/boyfriend. These are films I prefer to watch with my women friends or even by myself.

What a great lens. 911 brought fear and mistrust to our lives. One wonders how to bring back love and trust. By just opening our eyes we will notice however that Love Actually is All Around.

Hey Pat, I just watched The Lake House last weekend. I got it from NetFlix. My daughter recommended it to me. I liked it. Does that make me a Boomer Chick? (grin) Act on your dream! JD
