Classic Chick Flicks

One reader commented that she wanted a list of chick flicks, so I compiled a list of classic romantic movies that I loved growing up. I saw these movie on good old regular TV -- pre-cable days. Somehow you would happen upon one of these gems. I saw all the Katherine Hepburn and Spencer Tracy movies, and there are more really good ones. Below is a list of my favorites and you haven't seem them -- I highly recommend them!

Classic Romantic Comedies

His Girl Friday (1940) Rosalind Russel and Cary Grant
The Shop Around the Corner (1940) Maragaret Sullavan and James Stewart
Philadelphia Story (1940) Katherine Hepburn and Cary Grant
hmm, apparently 1940 was a good year for making movies
Adams Rib (1949) Katherine Hepburn and Spencer Tracy
African Queen (1951) Katherine Hepburn and Humphrey Bogart
I guess I like movies with Katherine Hepburn!
Roman Holiday (1953) Audrey Hepburn and Gregory Peck
Sabrina (1954) Audrey Hepburn and Humphrey Bogart
To Catch a Thief (1955) Grace Kelly and Cary Grant
High Society (1956) Grace Kelly and Bing Crosby (a remake of Philadelphia Story and not as good)
