good lesboat/lgbt movies?
« on: February 12, 2010, 11:43:10 AM »

the straight (or even gay males) movies i've watched during my whole life definitely outnumber the lesbian ones,
so i was wondering, do you know of any good lesbian themed movie?

but yeah, feel free to use this thread to recommend LGBTQ movies in general  :)

amour de femme
all over me (gotta love leisha hailey O0 )
high art
tipping the velvet (bbc 3 part series - very good!)
fingersmith (another bbc)
show me love (very good swedish film)
itty bitty titty committee
naissance des pieuvres ("water lilies" in america)

that's all i could think of right now, hope it helped! O0

ps - i know you've already seen "naissance des pieuvres" but in case somebody looks at this list for reference. see it, it's good. (the french always do it good :coolsmiley:)

the problem with les bean movies is that they are so.  damn.  depressing.  and before like 1995 or something they always ended in death and unrequited love.




'incredibly true adventures of two girls in love'

'if these walls could talk 2' (premium channel movie)


the former is actually a pretty cute, funny movie and the latter is pretty damn good, if it does have its tragic moments.


avoid 'go fish' and 'personal best,' trust me.  'salmonberries' almost killed me, as well.

Better than Chocolate. It is one of my favourite movies.

Fingersmith and Tipping the Velvet are pretty damn good too (although Mr Frog has labelled them Sheri's crazy cockney lesbian collection)

And Because I'm a Cheerleader is awesome and funny and sweet.

there is also a documentary out which is, in fact, pure pornography, called 'she stole my voice' which is--ostensibly--about lesbian rape.  the staged scenes are, like i said, pretty much bad porn though.  kinda makes the documentary part seem a little silly, considering the acting quality and the lack of ability to facilitate willful suspension of disbelief.

tom robbins, man.  that alone makes it good, right?


well, the book was good, anyway.
