Topless is a gentle, character-driven slice of life film. I’m pretty sure there’s not even any nudity in it. 6.4/10
I’m very much not the audience for Afternoon Breezes. It’s slow and subtle yet also deals with a problematic lesbian stereotype. 5.4/10
This movie is like they put a list of sad things that could happen in an average, every day life into a hat. And then they picked every single one of them to put in the movie. 5.4/10
The sci-fi universe of Harmony is a welcome change of pace from yet another romantic drama. 7.3/10
Unfortunately, a good softcore film is still an at best, average film. For that reason, I can’t give it higher than a mixed review. But if you are looking for a lesbian softcore flick, Coming Out is a way better option that any of the trashy 70s stuff. 5.0/10
This is not the most exciting WLW film by any means. But if you need a sort of gentle relationship tragedy, Finding the Adolescence fits that bill. 5.6/10
Love/Juice has one of the most fascinating, fucked up and tragic relationship dynamics I’ve seen in a WLW film. I’m blown away that this tiny little indie pulled off such dramatic heights. 7.4/10
In addition to a great antagonist, Shady is successful at cultivating an air of mounting dread and helplessness. 6.5/10
Matsumoto Seicho Special: Yubi is the rare WLW movie that crosses from just being bad into being so bad it’s kind of good. 3.2/10
