Continuing on yesterday's romantic film themed blog post... 

Period Flicks For Chicks... You know, those romantic, costume dramas set in the beautiful English countryside, majestic, turn-of-the-century America, Florence, or aboard a sinking ship... all of which are certain to include lots of corsets, ribbons, tea cups, star-crossed lovers, and repressed sexualities.

Realitybites' Handy Dandy Dictionary defines Period Flicks as films particularly suitable for a woman during that special time of the month when her hormones are out of whack and emotions run high... when all she wants to do is hole herself in for the day and immerse herself in a melodramatic tearjerker that's ending is sure to have her crying, cheering and clapping, or better still, jumping up and down on the couch.

These are my faves:

Pride & Prejudice (2005)

Pride and Prejudice (1996) 

Atonement

Valmont
