Women always want something. Their desires are not limited to ordinary cars, fur coats, and diamonds, and cinema demonstrates this perfectly. A bit of humor about our beloved ladies.

Women want: …several men to fight for them

True Blood

Love triangles never lose their relevance. The most famous vampire film of the 21st century, 'Twilight', is built on this conflict. In the series 'The Vampire Diaries' and 'True Blood', two men are in love with the same girl, who does not reject either potential partner but manipulates them to satisfy her desires. A recent Netflix hit also offers an unexpected take on the love triangle. From all this, we can conclude that a woman loves it when not one, but several men pursue her, from whom she can choose the best.

'Behind Her Eyes' — an unexpected series about a love triangle

'Behind Her Eyes' wanted to look like a serious series and simultaneously surprise viewers. It succeeded at neither.

…to be mothers

The Blind Side

Almost any woman sees the continuation of the human race as the goal of her life. If for physiological or other reasons they cannot bear their own child, they can always adopt another, as the heroine of the film 'The Blind Side' did.

…career success

The Devil Wears Prada

A modern woman is not ready to simply be a mother and housewife; she also wants to achieve personal success at work. Even if sometimes it's hard and she has to put up with high demands from her boss, as the heroine Anne Hathaway does in the film 'The Devil Wears Prada'. And it is sometimes really worth it.

…to help others

Freedom Writers

Unlike most men, women are less prone to selfishness. Lovely ladies can and love to help others. Here we can recall the legendary Mother Teresa, and the character of Hilary Swank from the film 'Freedom Writers', who ends up in unfavorable conditions at a school with difficult children, but this not only does not break her but inspires her to new achievements.

…to be perfect

Black Swan

As is known, the pursuit of perfection can turn into a path to madness, which does not stop the heroine of the film 'Black Swan'. And such girls can be found even next door.

…to have the last word

Gone Girl

Women love to argue, almost as much as men, with one exception – even if they pretend to yield to the stronger sex, their actions say otherwise. This was extremely clearly demonstrated in the film 'Gone Girl', where the heroine Rosamund Pike, despite all circumstances, has the last word.

…to express themselves

Scott Pilgrim vs. the World

For a woman, the external reflection of her inner world is important. Sometimes we get what we saw in 'The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo', and sometimes it turns out like the heroine of the film 'Scott Pilgrim vs. the World'.

…to feel the most important

The Great Gatsby

Every girl deep down wants to feel like a princess, or at least an adored person for someone. Unfortunately, such dreams do not always lead to good, and a vivid example of this was in the film 'The Great Gatsby', where the heroine's behavior led to the ruin of individual lives.

…to die with a loved one on the same day

The Notebook

Since the times of old fairy tales, the phrase 'they lived happily ever after and died on the same day' instills hope in the fairer sex for the existence of 'eternal' love. These dreams are widespread, including in cinema. Thus, in the film 'The Notebook', the main characters overcome the problem of social inequality, cope with parental disapproval, experience the woman's memory loss, and die in the same bed. It may seem surprising, but such facts occur in real life, because from time to time news appears about happy couples who lived together for more than 50 years and passed away on the same day.
