20 Movies Every Woman Should Watch

There are films for long thoughts, dreamy films or films that you can watch and forget. And there are paintings for women. And you won't believe it, but they are not necessarily about love. They are multifaceted and unpredictable, like the fair sex itself.

The site has collected such paintings for you. Save them – sometimes a word heard in time or a thought gleaned from a movie can change your life.

Life in Pink



This is a very deep and sensitive biographical film about the French diva Edith Piaf, whose life was like a battle for the right to live, sing and love, which is significant in itself. But it became a masterpiece because it masterfully conveyed the atmosphere of Paris, crazy, wild and charming at the same time, which seems sweet and romantic only to those who do not know it well. Probably, in such conditions, real talent is born, but this is a completely different story.

G.I. Jane

A film without intrigue and expensive battles. But it is perhaps one of the few that reliably shows us what human willpower can be. In this case, women. G.I. Jane has several unforgettable scenes, the plot is perfectly played, so it has become a classic.

Mona Lisa's Smile

We don't know a wiser female film. It teaches dignity, courage, purposefulness. But much more important is that the film honestly and openly shows how important it is to think with your own head. Therefore, and also thanks to a decent cast, the picture turned out to be not vulgar feminist, but light and comprehensive, like a woman's intuition.

Million Dollar Baby

The film is captivating because it is not embellished with anything. He shows all the harshness and cruelty of life as it is. Life challenges us, and only a determined, courageous, tenacious and purposeful person can answer it and accept the fight. Director Clint Eastwood very accurately noticed the little things, and the actors lived inside themselves and conveyed all the emotions to us. Someone will say that the film is harsh, but if a girl or anyone else dreams of becoming a boxing champion, then there is no time for snot and a stupid happy ending.

The Devil Wears Prada

The world of fashion and gloss is certainly beautiful. But as beautiful as he is, he is cruel. Any trifle - and you are already dethroned from the top of Olympus. The film, of course, does not claim to be epochal. As there is a genre - a comedy drama - so it is filmed. But nevertheless, the film is excellent. A light, pleasant, non-far-fetched plot, which is decorated with the brilliant Meryl Streep and Anne Hathaway.

The Road of Change

It seems that what can make the viewer feel the film about a married couple with two children experiencing a personal crisis in the middle of the twentieth century in the United States? But towards the end of the film, you can barely scrape yourself off your chair from the realization that everything you have just seen is about you too. You can, like the main characters, intend to leave a hopeless situation for Paris. But it's not that simple. You can change your place of residence, but you can't run away from yourself. And if it is empty inside, then wherever you live, no matter who you live with, longing will not leave you. Thanks to the film for this discovery.

Queen

The film "The Queen" directed by Stephen Frears is one of the worthy and balanced films about a difficult time for the English royal family after the death of the nation's favorite Princess Diana. What should the queen, in whose direction a lot of unflattering words have rained down, succumb to emotions or show restraint, as befits a monarch? In the prologue of the film, there is a line from Shakespeare for a reason. But if Shakespeare's heroes fought the enemy with a sword and arrows, today the battle is fought with the help of cameras and microphones. Which also requires a certain amount of courage.

Erin Brockovich

The story of Erin Brockovich is the story of both a strong and a weak woman. It's just that due to the circumstances, ordinary female weaknesses are an inadmissible luxury for Erin. Maybe she is not a genius at all, but perseverance and indifference to other people's fates allow her the impossible - to surpass, defeat the most powerful corporation, literally poisoning people's lives. In moments when you give up, just watch this film again – it's great.

Frida

A bright film about a bright woman, about a rebellious nature, about irrepressible desire, about energy that is in full swing. Frida was 20 years old when she married Mexico's most famous artist, Diego Rivera, who was middle-aged, rich, and depraved. This picture tells about Frida not only as a brilliant artist, but also as a woman for whom love and family were in the first place. And the music for the film deserves special attention.

Eat, Pray, Love

We could not help but include this film in the list. Based on the book, this picture provided a simple recipe for depression – choose any three countries starting with the letter "I", immediately go on a trip and get to know yourself. The main character, played by Julia Roberts, succeeded. It's time for your story.

Golden Age

Another beautiful picture about how difficult it is to be a queen. But this film is not about history and not about the monarch, but about a person. Elizabeth I is a woman who does not belong to herself for a minute, deprived of even the simple joys of life. Uncertainty, passion, betrayal, adventure, greatness - everything is combined in the exciting epic "The Golden Age" with an incomparable script, luxurious costumes and stunning acting.

Where the Heart Is

The most amazing film about love, forgiveness and friendship. It would seem to be a banal story, as old as the world. A pregnant girl is left by a guy on whom she hopes as a life partner. But the world is not as bad as it seems. You just can't despair, you can't hate fate for anything, you can't give up. You just need to move forward, not remembering evil, help people and enjoy life. We've heard it a hundred times, but that's the key to happiness.

Joan of Arc

The film is truly excellent. A historical picture about heroes of this scale can easily be made boring and too pretentious. But the creators of the tape did a great job, and thanks to them for realism, faith and justice, which was perfectly expressed in the image of St. Joan, brilliantly played by Milla Jovovich.

Head in the Clouds

"Head in the Clouds" is not just the name of the film. This is the state of mind in which the characters live, a state of slight madness, sublime experiences that have no place on earth, they pull upwards, but, alas, distance them from the world. There is a lot of aesthetics in the picture, a tragic, doomed aesthetic that does not lose its shine even in moments of fading. And this is a real study of the most mysterious phenomenon in the universe – the human heart.

Elegy

There are films that shake the viewer to the core and pierce all the nerve endings. "Elegy" is one of them. The story of the relationship between college teacher David Kepesch and young immaculate Cuban Consuela Castillo dots all the i's somewhere inside us, and we already know who is next to us, who is not just next to us, but who is spiritually close.

Amelie

Dreamer Amélie finds a cache of old toys in her bathroom and is inspired by the idea of returning the "treasure" to its rightful owner. This kind deed changes the girl's life, and she begins to interfere in the lives of strangers in a completely unexpected way. The film turned our lives upside down too, and without the delightful music of the composer Yann Tiersen, it is no longer possible to imagine Paris.

7 days and nights with Marilyn

Playing Marilyn Monroe is a challenge to some extent. But actress Michelle Williams did an excellent job in her role - she managed to embody the image of a confident coquette and a little girl who is afraid of the whole world and people. But the film is worth watching not only because of Marilyn, although because of her you can go for more than that, but because of its amazing atmosphere. And you will believe that it is possible to reach the star.

Iron Lady

The film was not without pathos, but Meryl Streep, as always, saved everyone. At the same time, he saved the image of Thatcher, before whom one can only bow. A politician who prefers to act. A woman choosing a career. The leader of the country who can leave on time and with dignity. A must-see movie.

Evita

An amazing musical that tells the story of the life of the beloved of all Argentina, Evita Duarte de Peron, about her path along the path that she herself chose. I want to thank Madonna for the image recreated on the screen - she perfectly conveyed all the dark and light sides of her heroine, as well as her fears and ambitions. And, of course, the music deserves special praise - composer Andrew Lloyd Webber created masterpieces.

Jia

If we had to describe the film in one word, we would say "excellent". The viewer is shown all the harsh truth of the modeling business. It would seem that what could be more chic than a life filled with photo shoots, meetings, shows? And that's when we were led into the "brilliant" life of models. And young Angelina Jolie is just a godsend for the creators of the picture.

Coco do Chanel

The film is about a strong woman who was not afraid to challenge society with its morals, foundations, tight corsets, carnival dresses and meringue hats. Someone says that the film is boring and monotonous. Rather, the film is unhurried, and this is its charm. It is similar to life: sometimes everything goes very slowly, and sometimes it flies at the speed of thought. Well, Audrey Tautou in the image of the legendary Chanel is unsurpassed.
