Movies Mostly with Girl Actresses
by AmakoaAkana | created - 30 Jan 2016 | updated - 22 Dec 2019 | PublicA reference list of mostly movies with young actresses for a film school project. Some other off-topic stuff included. My ratings are mostly based on the actresses' role and how much i enjoyed the story/screenplay as a whole.
In Sept. 2017 our Internet system was destroyed by a hurricane and not restored until December 2019... so I have a great many excellent movies unrated. Sorry.
