Every other week, Valerie and Helen will look at a different chick flick (muff film, broad comedy, lady thriller, period movie, whathaveyou) and boil it down to its themes and how those themes affect our tender feminine emotions.

We'll explore just how strong girl power actually is and if real vampires sparkle in the sunlight, or if that's ju ...
