Is it still interesting to watch a movie about a woman coming out as a lesbian? Well yes it is! Especially when that woman in question is Dakota Johnson. I mean... Call me shallow 🤷‍♀️.

Ruta Gedmintas and Laura Fraser in Lip Service Oeh, Lip Service. The Scottish answer to The L Word. Or maybe it wasn't, but that is what I always thought. With Frankie as the Scottish Shane, although maybe even more glum than Shane was. But just as good with the ladies 😎. Kidding aside, this is … Continue reading Lip Service (2010): The Scottish Answer to The L Word

Gemma Chan and Katie McGrath in Dates Katie McGrath who plays an angry lesbian on a first date with another beautiful woman, played by Gemma Chang. I mean, this was kinda my dream come true 😅.

Elaine Cassidy and Sally Hawkins in Fingersmith Oh my word, Fingersmith. I've watched this mini series, an adaptation of Sarah Waters classic novel Fingersmith, so many times. It's absolutely fantastic. I just fell in love with everything; the brilliant story, the characters, the amazing love story between Maud and Sue, the twists and turns. Goosebumps … Continue reading Fingersmith (2005): Sarah Waters Classic Novel Adaptation

You can't go wrong with a cast like this 😏 I couldn't believe it when The L Word came out in 2004. The whole world had to stop and go away when we watched a new episode of this fabulously lesbian, lesbian show. Wow, it's still unbelievable this even happened. So many (beautiful) women, so … Continue reading The L Word (2004) – A Handbook for Every Lesbian

And Vanessa Kirby is just 🔥. Blurb from IMDB: Somewhere along the mid-19th century American East Coast frontier, two neighboring … Continue reading The World To Come (2020): Mid-19th Century American East Coast Frontier Love Story

Robin Weigert and Maggie Siff in Concussion I waited a long time before I dared to watch Concussion. I feared this was a movie that could trigger some unwanted emotions. And it did, but not necessarily in a bad way. This movie raises some questions that few dare to ask. Like, what happens when you're … Continue reading Concussion (2013): A Thought-Provoking Take on Sexual Satisfaction

Maria Schneider and Moniek van de Ven in A Woman Like Eve Being Dutch I cannot forget to mention Een Vrouw als Eva or A Woman like Eve. Or even without being Dutch, this is a great movie. Ahead of it's time, if you ask me. The movie is telling the story of Eva, a … Continue reading A Woman like Eve (1979): Groundbreaking Dutch Film on Love and Identity

Jessica Clark and Barbara Niven in A Perfect Ending I must admit that I really liked A Perfect Ending, another Nicole Conn movie. It was a very moving story and Barbara Niven was excellent. The artsy fartsy bits with Paris (and her weird slow voice) were less moving for me, but her backstory was. A … Continue reading A Perfect Ending (2012): An unlikely Love Story

Thunderbird Dinwiddie and Necar Zadegan in Elena Undone Elena Undone is another Nicole Conn movie. The movie has gotten some notoriety because of the longest kiss in a movie, 3 minutes and 24 seconds. It's cleverly done, but it doesn't really help. A lot of the movie is sometimes kinda cringe worthy. Like the guy … Continue reading Elena Undone (2010): Longest Kiss and Lesbian Love Story

Erika Linder and Natalie Krill in Below Her Mouth Weeeeeellll, this one is tricky. Some (or most maybe) would say that Below Her Mouth is just porn without plot. The title doesn't help in that regard 😂. But I thought it was a hot, romantic movie. That being said, I sometimes did feel a bit … Continue reading Sensual Love Story: Below Her Mouth (2016)

(2004): Action-Packed Schoolgirl Romance Comedy

Alexandra Dahlström and Rebecka Liljeberg in Fucking Amal/Show Me Love Why I like this is easy. Fucking Åmål is about coming of age, identifying your sexuality, having a crush on the hot girl in school, making out with the hot girl, getting the hot girl in the end in a bad ass way. It's basically … Continue reading Exploring Sexual Identity and Coming of Age in Fucking Åmål/Show Me Love (1998)

Starring Keri Jo Chapman and Teresa Garrett This movie does not stand out for the greatest directing ever, but I don't care. It's In The Water is just so romantic and it includes tropes I adore: Gay for You, Friends to Lovers, Return to Hometown, Small Town, (*sigh). Anyway, check out the poster left hand … Continue reading It’s In The Water (1997): Embrace Love and Small Town Intrigue

Chloë Sevigny and Michelle Williams in If These Walls Could Talk 2 In If These Walls Could Talk 2 you see three stories about lesbian couples in three different decades (this is basically the summary on imdb 😏). I loved this because of the segments 1961 and 1972. The '61 is about what a fucked … Continue reading Lesbian Love Stories Across Decades in If These Walls Could Talk 2 (2000)

Rachel McAdams and Rachel Weisz in Disobedience I love controversial themes. So this love story between Ronit and Esti is one that grabbed me and swallowed me whole. They are both from an Orthodox Jewish community, very strict, which Ronit 'escaped' from. She returns for the funeral of her estranged father. Esti, meanwhile, has married … Continue reading Undeniable Love and Tension: ‘Disobedience’ (2017)

Cate Blanchett and Rooney Mara in Carol I had read The Price of Salt by Patricia Highsmith and it was such a beautiful novel. I still intend to reread this book and post about it. But I digress. Anyway, this movie came out and Cate Blanchett would play the part of Carol! Be still, my … Continue reading Keeps getting better and better: Carol (2015)
