West Virginia – The Night Of The Hunter (1955)
What do you know about West Virginia? Probably not much unless you have lived there. It is, at the very least, the setting of The Night of the Hunter. It is about a religious fanatic by Harry Powell who marries women for their money only to murder them with a switchblade afterward. He does this by saying that it is for the greater good. Doesn’t that sound fascinating to you?!
Wisconsin – Bridesmaids (2011)
Many people do not take the comedy genre seriously, but there are many funny gems out there. Just take a look at Bridesmaids! It features several old SNL stars. This movie has definitely given us hope in chick flicks once more. Melissa McCarthy pretty much stole the show, which is evident by how she brought home the Academy Award for Best Supporting actress. Let us keep our fingers crossed that we see other women-led comedies like this one in the future.
