There are two types of women in this world. The ones who cry whenever they remember Titanic and the ones who think the husband was to blame in Acrimony. I am neither. I’m yet to see Titanic and I think Tyler Perry was to blame in Acrimony. He wrote the damn script. If you had a strong reaction to your screen when watching these movies though or if you still remember the storyline to an extent, you probably live for the drama. You may or may not even be a drama queen in your own life. And for the sake of keeping our queens fully fed, we’ve compiled these 8 movies with enough drama to last you an entire month. If you’re a sucker for enthralling stories that would make you yell, hold your breath, and dare I say shed one or two tears (who’s cutting onions), you’re in the right place. Expect a little bit of chaos sprinkled with the tiniest bit of madness. You’re welcome.
A FALL FROM GRACE
I think the only thing we need to say here is Tyler Perry. Anything that man touches is pure unadulterated drama. I’m convinced he watches Nollywood because you can’t tell me y’all don’t see the Patience Ozokwo inspiration. If you think Acrimony made you angry, A Fall From Grace might make you break several bottles. You’re welcome.
SYNOPSIS
When a woman is indicted for murdering her husband, her rookie lawyer believes there may be a conspiracy at play.

RED NOTICE
I’m not sure if this should be here because it has a couple fast paced action scenes. But it definitely dramatic. I’m talking “what on earth is happening” plot twists. Like “Love Wedding Repeat” you’re going to keep guessing and you’re not going to see any of it coming.
