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

Those were all of the ones I was going to say exactly! I also liked Bound. I watched that one over and over until my eyes burned. Relax It's Just Sex I thought awesome and my own personal favorite is Tipping The Velvet, the novel and the movie.
