Enter teen movies, especially teen movies geared toward teenage girls – capturing so many of the issues and emotions that teen girls find themselves experiencing, including romance, comedy, angst, friendship, awkwardness, anxiety, and desperately wanting life to be a little less complicated (preferably with a happy ending!)
Let's take a look at three particularly iconic eras for teen movies and go through some of our favorite movies from each! (And we definitely couldn't fit *every* great movie into this video, so if we missed your fave let us know in the comments so we can make sure that it's in part 2!)
