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.

...oh, wait - you said good movies.


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


well, the book was good, anyway.





Yes, book good, movie bad. Though I'll watch it just for Uma, because even with huge ass thumbs she is the sex!

I vote that you see "Imagine Me & You" and "Better than Chocolate", and perhaps also "Foxfire" even though it's only subtly lesbian, just because it's a young Angelina Jolie (and the one woman she's confirmed having dated).

I agree with "Imagine Me & You". Piper Perabo is awesome!! Love her!
Plus it's got Matthew Goode & Anthony Stewart Head! :D

There's a Korean film called "A Bizarre Love Triangle"/"Taekwon Girl" that's supposed to be worth checking out, not wonderful, but worth a look.

the problem with les bean movies is that they are so.  damn.  depressing. 

Yeah, but you can say the same of films about gay males. Brokeback Mountain wasn't exactly a barrel of laughs.

I sometimes wonder how a film about a perfectly like-able gay couple who end up absolutely okay at the end would go over.

well, there are some, actually; even brokeback mountain was something of a throwback, following some of the more positive movies that it has.  i'm trying to think of a specific title that escapes me, but in the end, the guy got the guy, so to speak; in other words it had a happy ending.  it seems, too, there were also a lot more gay guy films all along, including many that were more mainstream, higher production, and so on.

the celluloid closet is a really good documentary movie about teh gay in films since films were a possibility.  it lists just about anything you can think of, and follows the trends in movies through complete ignorance of blatantly sissy characters to current (well, nineties) movies.  i found a lot of good film titles i'd missed before, or just never known about.

I Can't Think Straight!!!!!!!

My all time favorite lesbian movie, much due to Lisa Ray, hehehe.  :love5:


Does Gia count as a lesbian movie? Angelina Jolie certainly have sex with whatsherface in it, Elizabeth Mitchell. (I checked haha)

There is a lesbian storyline in V for Vendetta, but it's sort of a side storyline, it just mentions that a girl was a lesbian and she was punished for it. Basically.

Although you should watch V for Vendetta regardless ;)

Read the graphic novel, I'm pretty sure the lesbian side story is not in it (its been 2years since i've read it)
and also Evi was not heading to see stephen fry but was out soliciting when the fingermen assault her.

There's also a movie called Gray Matters. I think it's cute, but as with very many other lesbian movies, it's not exactly that good
