O, The Oprah Magazine's "50 Greatest Chick Flicks of All-Time"

Women’s pictures used to be guilty pleasures: No more! Now they’re kicking butt, getting respect, and grossing huge. From frothy romances 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. Karen Durbin serves up the 50 Greatest Chick Flicks of all time.<br /><br />
If you don’t find all your own favorites here, old and new, that’s for a happy reason: A truly inclusive list would be four times as long and growing fast. In the meantime, enjoy! (With many thanks to <a href="http://listsofbests.com/profile.cgi?id=411">psstwife</a> for her help with the list!)
