5 Hollywood Movies That Celebrates Girl's Gang

Every girl has one female best friend in her life and what better way to celebrate than with an epic movie marathon featuring films that show how great - and, sometimes, crazy complicated - female friendships can be?

# The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants

Before these besties split up for summer break for the first time ever, they happen upon a pair of jeans that somehow makes all of their butts look good. In lieu of endless phone calls and letters, they decide to keep in touch with this magic pair of pants, which makes its way around the world as the friends send them back and forth all summer.

# Clueless

After discovering a love of doing so-called good deeds, valley-girl Cher decides to give the awkward new girl in school, Tai, an epic makeover. Little does she know, this makeover comes with consequences, as does all of her meddlings in other people’s love lives. When Cher gets in way over her head, she’s forced to re-evaluate her ultra-privileged life, learning what’s really important—like her girlfriends, for example.

# First Wives Club

So far, all of these girlfriend movies have focused on teenagers. But let’s not forget that adult female friendships are amazing, too. First Wives Club follows a group of college besties who are brought back together by their friend Cynthia’s tragic suicide following her divorce. To honor their friend’s memory, Anne, Brenda, and Elise vow to get revenge on their own ex-husbands. Together they learn that while revenge is sweet, helping each other is way sweeter.

# Pitch Perfect

Friendships are born. Hearts are broken. Popular songs are sung acapella, giving you and your girlfriends the perfect opportunity for a sing-along. Make sure to tell your besties what Beca tells the Bellas in the end. “I love you awesome nerds!”

# A League of Their Own

This film has an amazing cast, including Geena Davis, Rosie O’Donnell, Tom Hanks, and even Madonna! But the best part of this movie is the fact that it tells a fictionalized version of a true story. The Rockford Peaches were a real women’s baseball team who played from 1943 to 1954 in the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League. Pretty inspirational, huh?
