I love WLW and I also enjoy watching a good murder so Lizzie should’ve been a movie for me. Too bad it took itself so damn seriously and failed to be anything other than dull. 5.8/10

The screenplay of Lisa Cholodenko’s The Kids Are All Right is the star of the show. It finds universal truths about family in a movie about gay parenting. 8.6/10
Not every WLW movie has to be life changing but Concussion left so little impact on me as a viewer that I might as well have not seen it at all. 5.7/10
Featuring a brilliant cast headed by Lily Tomlin, Paul Weitz’s Grandma is a funny and heartfelt movie whose main character is a lesbian senior citizen. 8.8/10
While I think that Claude’s character will be relatable for a lot of queer female viewers, it doesn’t save the fact that this isn’t a particularly good movie. All Over Me feels ultimately aimless. 5.5/10
Can You Ever Forgive Me? is a small, personal movie. It is not about someone changing the world or experiencing some major historical event. It’s just a small scale, very human tragedy. It remains gripping due to its excellent writing directing and superb performances. 8.8/10
Bloomington didn’t blow me away with how good it was or anything. But it is significantly better than I expected and one of my favourite depictions of a WLW teacher/student relationship. 5.7/10
Sure, Breaking the Girls has more lady kissing in it than most but overall, it’s like the literally bazillion other mediocre thrillers that make the same mistake of thinking more misdirects equals a better movie. 4.6/10
The combination of her performance and beauty made Gia Angelina Jolie’s breakout performance and she totally deserved it. Jolie is downright exceptional in this. 8.2/10
Even in its somewhat unfocused, weirdly stylized state, Bound has more charm and entertainment value than most queer films I’ve watched. 8.4/10
