The Movies With One-Word Female-Name Titles That Could Be Worth Your Time

by Alex Vo | December 22, 2015 | Comments

Jennifer Lawrence’s latest collabo with director David O. Russell has the 25-year old actress starring as Joy Mangano, a single mother and entrepreneur who invents the Miracle Mop. The movie is aptly called Joy and (see if you can follow us on this one) inspires this week’s 24 Frames gallery: all the single female titles that we think you might enjoy watching.

Hanna
Year: 2011

Saoirse Ronan is a trained from birth to be an assassin by her ex-CIA father in this crisply choreographed, cool take on the revenge thriller.

Lucy
Year: 2014

Director Luc Besson’s return to action filmmaking stars Scarlett Johansson as the titular character, who evolves into a badass fighter after learning to use (just go with it) more than 10% of her brain.

Chloe
Year: 2010

Amanda Seyfried stars in this psychosexual thriller as a call girl who’s hired by a woman to seduce her husband as a test of his fidelity.

Honey
Year: 2003

After Dark Angel and before Fantastic Four, Jessica Alba was Honey, the center of a moral hip-hop story that featured some sweet dance moves.

Selena
Year: 1997

Jennifer Lopez plays Latino crossover icon Selena Quntanilla, charting her rise into the Billboard 200 starting from a young age to her murder at age 23 by the hands of her manager.

Serena
Year: 2015

Lawrence’s back on the list! And with a movie from this same year no less. She joins her frequent on-screen significant other Bradley Cooper in this Depression-set drama from acclaimed Danish director Susanne Bier.

Victoria
Year: 2015

Laia Costa stars as young woman in Berlin who gets swept into a late-night chase. The Certified Fresh thriller drew early festival attention due to being shot in one unbroken 2-hour take without digital assistance.

Maggie
Year: 2015

It is not a tumor! …But it might be a viral zombie infection. Arnold Schwarzenegger plays daddy to Abigail Breslin’s Maggie, who must come to terms with her remaining days after being bitten by an infected human.

Carrie
Year: 1976

Sissy Spacek stars as the high school girl who never stood a chance, in this horrifying look at supernatural powers, cruelty, and teen angst. The film was remade in 2012 by Kimberly Peirce and starring Chloe Grace Moretz.

Matilda
Year: 1996

Mara Wilson is Matilda, a precocious and ESP-gifted child trapped in an unloving home and a school run by a sadistic headmaster. Directed by Danny DeVito, his quirky movie captures the freewheeling essence of the original Roald Dahl book.

Alice
Year: 1990

Two movies called Alice came out close to each other a long time ago: there was the Czech film, an adaptation of Alice in Wonderland by Jan Svankmajer, and a 1990 Woody Allen movie starring Mia Farrow who uses magic pills to explore a possible infidelity.

Amelie
Year: 2001

Audrey Tatou’s international breakthrough role was that of adorable perpetual daydreamer in this lively French romantic-comedy.

Carol
Year: 2015

Based on the significant 1952 Patricia Highsmith novel, Cate Blanchett plays an older woman who falls for a young shopgirl in a repressive American society.

Sabrina
Year: 1954

With its humorous script and Audrey Hepburn’s immense screen presence (which causes a romantic competition between Humphrey Bogart and William Holden), Sabrina remains a resonant romantic gem.

Elizabeth
Year: 1998

A rich, suspenseful journey into the heart of British Royal politics, and features a typically outstanding performance from Cate Blanchett as the royal Queen.

Frida
Year: 2002

Salma Hayek and director Julie Taymor together give audiences a passionate, visually striking biopic about the larger-than-life artist.

Gigi
Year: 1958

A bourgeois musical romance and winner of Best Picture, Leslie Caron plays a girl so young and carefree she initially can’t see relationships with men as anything but platonic fun.

Gloria
Year: 2014

As a woman in her golden years seeking love, star Paulina Garcia delivers sweetly poignant portrait of a character often neglected in Hollywood.

Laura
Year: 1944

Gene Tierney as Laura starts out dead at the beginning of the movie but nothing is as it ever seems in a noir, and Otto Preminger runs us through the ringer in this psychologically complex portrait of obsession and murder.

Marnie
Year: 1964

In Hitchcock’s last great film, Tippi Hedren plays a compulsive thief who slowly gets blackmailed into marrying Sean Connery.

Penelope
Year: 2006

Christina Ricci stars in this modern fairy tale of a pig-faced woman who searches for love beyond superficiality, while James McAvoy, Peter Dinklage, and Reese Witherspoon round out the charming supporting cast.

Year: 2014

Two chances to play out your hard knock life fantasies: the 1982 John Huston-directed version starring Aileen Quinn, and the one from 2014 starring Quvenzhané Wallis of Beasts of the Southern Wild fame.

Rebecca
Year: 1940

Hitchcock’s first American film (and his only Best Picture winner), the never-seen title character hangs with dread over every scene in this gothic masterpiece.

Christine
Year: 1983

The final movie in Stephen King’s C-word trilogy (including Carrie and Cujo) stars a 1958 Plymouth Fury who, bad from birth, terrorizes every human she comes in contact with.
