Vintage psychodramas are a non-renewable resource. We’re not exactly getting more of them. So I adore the ones we do have. As imperfect as they are, they are engaging, fucked up and also willing to explore some interesting concepts. 6.2/10

I can’t believe this movie exists. The style of it assures you it is indeed a film from 1969. But the content of its story is staggeringly progressive for its time. 6.5/10
The Sisters really surprised me. I went in expecting bottom of the barrel sleaze when the movie is actually a fairly competent melodrama. 6.9/10
Salamander is the earliest WLW film to feature an interracial relationship. That alone makes noteworthy. But beyond being noteworthy, is Salamander any good? Absolutely not. 2.4/10
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
