Southern Belles is a 2005 film directed by Paul S. Myers and Brennan Shroff. This is a story of two best friends who live in a trailer park located in the town of Johnson's Mark in Georgia. Dreaming of a fresh start in Atlanta they soon learn it will be very difficult to make their way there on their small town budget. There are many references to the literary history of the State of Georgia including Gone With the Wind and To Kill a Mocking Bird. The subtle comedic interjections of stereotyped expectations of those living in the south are combined with light humor and romance that makes the satirical experience of a reference movie very enjoyable.

Famous quotes containing the words southern and/or belles:
“The Great South Beach of Long Island,... though wild and desolate, as it wants the bold bank,... possesses but half the grandeur of Cape Cod in my eyes, nor is the imagination contented with its southern aspect.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Learning has been as great a Loser by being shut up in Colleges and Cells, and secluded from the World and good Company. By that Means, every Thing of what we call Belles Lettres became totally barbarous, being cultivated by Men without any Taste of Life or Manners, and without that Liberty and Facility of Thought and Expression, which can only be acquir’d by Conversation.”
—David Hume (1711–1776)
