Now Dah-lings, could we go back to school and do this over again? The writer needs help, the actors most assuredly need help. Can ah say FLAT? How ’bout UNTRAINED? They’ve all come from the Bob Hope school of acting … reading off of cue cards. This is assuming they’ve acted before. However, despite the failures ah feel there are some truly heart-wrenching moments that make it a worthwhile watch as teenage boys discover their feelings for each other, only to be found out by their families. The exposed relationship leads to finding out one Read the rest of this review »

It is often misunderstood that lesbian films must be serious in nature. This theory does not hold true for the movie Bar Girls, a romantic- comedy film based on the lesbian life and culture. Bar Girls, which was released in the early 1990’s, has received much praise and acclaim from those that are lesbians as well as those that appreciate the lesbian lifestyle.

Bar Girls, which was created from a play by Lauran Hoffman, was brought to life on the silver screen from the stages in Los Angeles. Many of the characters that were in the Los Angeles play were also in the movie, as well as a special cameo Read the rest of this review »

Broken Hearts Club is a witty and entertaining comedy about a group of West Hollywood gay boys - their lives and loves and damned if Ta can find anything about this to trash. Ah’m flummoxed. Ah thought for sure ah’d have some juice with Dean Cain on board, but he actually does a good job.

In his feature film debut, openly gay writer/director Greg Berlanti oh how ah love that may-un! - has crafted a funny, touching slice-of-life portrait on the lives and loves of a group of gay West Hollywood friends. The characters include Dennis (Timothy Olyphant), a promising photographer,  his housemate Cole (Dean Cain), a charming man-stealing actor; Benji (Zach Braff), a punkish gym Read the rest of this review »

For the second installment of must see lesbian films, I have selected Bound. Bound has received much acclaim for its production and cast, as well as being a highly recognized lesbian film. A brilliant lesbian film, produced by the Wachowski brothers, Bound is a film that should be viewed by lesbians and lesbian-film lovers alike.

The premise of the film concentrates around Violet (played by Jennifer Tilly) and her rocky relationship with her husband, Caesar ( portrayed by Joe Pantoliano). A third element to the film is added when Corky Read the rest of this review »
