Welcome to Just Chick Flicks
If this is your first visit to Just Chick Flicks, let me give you a tour. First of all, you should know a few things about me. I LOVE movies, especially old movies. Movies starring great actresses like Kathryn Hepburn, Bette Davis, Barbara Streisand. Romantic comedies with Meg Ryan or Sandra Bullock. You name it. I love movies, especially the Chick Flick.
My name is Clara Mathews (Clarabela). I started this blog a little over a year ago to express myself and share my love of movies. The topic is generally ‘chick flicks’, but as you will see, I use a very broad definition of that term. For instance, I think that Star Trek movies are chick flicks. Oh, yes they are.
Why Chick Flicks
A Chick Flick can be many things. As many things as there are women who watch movies. Anything from a movie featuring strong female roles, like Thelma & Louise to a movie featuring your favorite Hollywood hunk, like Sean Connery or Pierce Brosnan in a James Bond film. The definition is limitless. And that’s what I want to explore, the world of the CHICK FLICK.
Not all Chick Flicks are sappy romantic comedies or sad tear-jerkers. I want to redefine the term ‘chick flick’ to mean not only movies that feature women in a positive, but also movie that appeal to women. Woman love all kinds of movies. Just Chick Flicks explores, discusses and reviews the many types movies that women love and some that we hate. Everything from classic movies to new releases. Yes, sometimes even sci-fi and Kung Fu movies.
