Desert Hearts
Another Claire, Dylan And then there was some movie with Muriel Hemingway. She was a runner...who (wait for it. wait for it. wait for it) ends up with the man ('cuz you know, if one of the lesbians in the couple doesn't die at the end, they <naturally> end up with the man) I think I just officially dated myself |

That was Personal Best. And of course the more feminine (Muriel Hemmingway) one would go back to men and the butch looking one was evil...........laughin....

desert hearts and Clair of the moon sucked.
This one really isn't as bad as all that. It actually covers some important same-sex topics for people who can't get married and spanning down to great grandchildren. Sharon Gless acted well in it. the only difficulty I had was the dialogue on occation - but when I remembered it was adapted from a play, and that's why it was constructed in that way, I got over it quickly. Things can seem a bit more... theatrical... when made into a movie if the dialogue isn't adapted to the screen. I instead thought of it like I was watching a filmed play. Then everything wasn't quite as... blockish. Theater and TV/Film are very different beasts. But it is very far from being insipid and/or teenage. Inki gave all thumbs forward for the portrayal of a butch by Sharon Gless. I've seen better dyke films, but this is far from bad. |

UGH!!! What is so frustrating is that there are some very good indie films that don't get out there. Love Frameline Film Festival time here! If these Walls Could Talk 2 (2000) - The segment on Linda during the 70's falling in love with a butch was well done in taking a look at what some of us right here did experience via separatist lesbian feminists. Linda faces her honest attraction to butch women and the segment was from a sensitive perspective. Also, it was one of three different lesbian experiences that were presented showing we are just not all the same! http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0206036/plotsummary Last edited by AtLast; 07-27-2010 at 08:59 AM. |

I agree with some Postings here..
During my time of trying to Grasp for some representation on Film .....or tv... I pretty much pounced anything that resembled Queer or had a even a subtle theme... 2 of my first "lesbian-centric" Films were of course{get ready to cringe} Go,Fish & Bar Girls.. Why I didn't stop and run off screaming mid-film is because of what Strappin says...Gotta give 'em a chance... Go Fish, I'll admit to eventually liking...It grows on ya, well..ok..It grew on ME.. The only down on it was when Max asked Eli if she embraced the "patriarchic Mimic of butch-femme", I did boo that...but then I forgave it {it's So hard to find a movie with 2 baby butches falling in love, -smirk-} Bar Girls only reminded me Constantly of the Intricate web of bullshit "Dyke Drama" can produce..... Redeeming movie for me was The Incredibly True Adventure of Two Girls in Love I realized I had a serious weakness for a specific type in this film... corny dialogue but I did run through memory lane in my own "puppy love" dept. Mind u, for Serious....and I do mean serious "Cheese".. U should watch "But I'm a Cheerleader" I honestly believe in the the following "If you think u can do better, please do" All these people tried their best with what little resources they had available on a shoestring budget... I yearn for exquisitely performed {and happy ending} lesbian , and/or Butch-Femme {maybe butch-butch also} Films, but..until then... ~waddles off with "Better than Chocolate"~ soo, yeah, I'm gonna hunt down Hanna now... And I Loooooved If These Walls could Talk 2

Does anyone remember some movie about two women who work together as housekeepers (for wealthy families) in old timey England, and they tell people that they're sisters?
Dylan I think it might be called 'Sister My Sister' or something like that |

Oh yes Bound!I named my sleek dark 1962 valiant Violet after the Tilly character in that movie.
 One of my personal favorites- Portrait of a Marriage. The story of Vita Sackville-West and Violet Keppel, with a little of Virginia Woolfe. Not a social commentary, and very little I could relate to on a personal level, but it plays into my love of history- and some brilliant acting.
