Maybe Lez Bomb represents some sort of equality we have been missing. Perhaps true equality is even LGBTQ* people getting broad, TGI Friday-style comedies with overdone joke set ups. 5.0/10

The Secrets is a complex and emotional film. It is one of the best WLW films I’ve seen. Great writing and great performances make this an engaging, exceptional film. 9.2/10
In a lot of ways, this movie more forward-thinking than lots of WLW films released in the following two decades. That Tender Touch is a surprisingly nuanced film for the time. 5.9/10
Even if I found subtitles for Xdeal, I can’t imagine they’d change how I feel about the film. This is just a silly piece of softcore porn that doesn’t really respect women and has no likeable characters. 2.1/10
I’ve noticed that British movies are particularly good at two things: dramatic love confessions and passive aggression. A Village Affair is a standard British TV movie that wisely features both of these things. 5.2/10
utterfly is a simple, gorgeous and effective drama. It is not only a heart-wrenching depiction of what it is like to be gay in Hong Kong but has universal truths about being gay regardless of country. 8.3/10
Liberty’s Secret is a movie made by and starring Musical Theatre Kids. Each of the cast and the movie itself is very earnest, very perky and a little amateur. But of course, they’re not Musical Theatre Kids. They’re Musical Theatre Adults so that’s less charming still. 3.1/10
Sonja is ultimately a competent but unremarkable coming of age film. 5.2/10
The Hours is a great and heartbreaking movie. Full of great dialogue, great performances and difficult themes, it is an emotional, sometimes heartbreaking film. 9/10
Young and Wild is not a perfect film. I certainly have mixed opinions on it. But for all its faults, one I am certain of is that this film would have been 50 times worse had it not been directed by a woman. 6.2/10
