I’ve seen a lot of queer movies in my time clearly made for a straight audience. That’s nothing new. What is new is the lengths to which Serving in Silence: The Margarethe Cammermeyer Story went to cater to a straight audience. 4.4/10

While the pacing gets iffy in the third act, this is a character and a story I remained invested in until the ending credits rolled. 8.1/10
Compulsion has nothing going for it. The focus of this movie is being sexy so character work and story are almost non-existent. But it’s also not even that sexy or extreme. 3.9/10
If you want a WLW movie that makes you feel disturbed and sad, Sister My Sister is a pretty safe bet. 7.3/10
While The Dancer looks very nice, the writing lets the movie down. This is such a bland and by-the-numbers biopic. 5.6/10
I think I would’ve really enjoyed The Monkey’s Mask novel. But the movie adaption of said novel? Meh. 4.7/10
Overall, Lovesong is a really solid little movie. I can’t imagine it will be anyone’s favourite WLW film but it’s also fairly free of overt flaws. 6.6/10
The Chambermaid Lynn wants two things. It desperately wants to be Amelie. It also wants you to take it completely seriously. Those two wants are directly contradictory. 5.2/10
The Watermelon Woman is one of the best WLW films of the 90s. Please watch it. 8.9/10
Like any subgenre, there are good films and bad ones. The Gymnast isn’t really either. It’s a pretty middling movie overall. 6.0/10
