Two films by Terrence Mallick (spelling may be wrong):

"Badlands", narrated by the lead female character (played by Sissy
Spacek), one of my all-time favorite movies.

"Days of Heaven".  If I remember correctly, the young female character
narrates at least part of the movie. 

I just re-read your question.  These are films that are narrated by
females, I don't know anything about their trailers.
