Chick Flick

Chick Flick

Chick-flick is a slang term for a film genre mainly dealing with love and romance and designed to appeal to a largely female target audience. Although many types of films may be directed toward the female gender, "chick-flick" is typically used only in reference to films that are heavy with emotion or contain themes that are relationship-based (although not necessarily romantic as many other themes may be present). Chick-flicks often are released en masse around Valentine's Day.

Famous quotes containing the word flick:

    Cry joy that this witchlike midwife second
    Bullies into rough seas you so gentle
    And makes with a flick of the thumb and sun
    A thundering bullring of your silent and girl-circled island.
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
