Mean Girls
Yes the matriarch of chick flicks, mean girls. I really love this movie it perfectly balances comedy with real life experiences even if they are dramatised. Regina's quietly backhanded compliments, actions and sarcasm really show a true mean girl. A lot of movies just like to make the mean girl a unapologeticly rude and horrible to everyone directly and somehow they are popular. Which makes no sense to me. But Regina everything she does makes people want to think she likes them while simultaneously making others around her feel insecure and inferior to her. She has the type of energy that makes others feel blessed to be in her presence, she's confident in her personality and lifestyle and doesn't question it so others around her don't question it either. It's only when a new girl in school who doesn't bow down to the social ways works to uncover Regina and yes this works cadys actions show the school how weak Regina can be and makes Regina lose her power in a way. But sub consciously Cady is becoming Regina she's learning her techniques her rules of life and using them to battle Regina. It's so interesting to see this form of classic high school behaviour and social standards seen on TV but here it is done through comedy and wearing pink on Wednesdays.
