I do not want this review to come off as though I am making exceptions for Rafiki’s quality because of its difficult and singular origin. If you look at the movie without regarding its importance to African and Kenyan LGBT representation and status as a brave trailblazer, you’re still left with a strong and enjoyable movie. 8.6/10

Kyss Mig is a solid, romantic love story with a happy ending. It’s an an enjoyable watch and a good choice of a movie to pick if you’re a lady on a date with another lady. 7.2/10
Subversive, funny and an absolute classic, But I’m a Cheerleader is one of the most successful queer romantic comedies ever made. 9.3/10
If you’re going to watch just one WLW vampire movie, first of all, I can’t relate to you; we have nothing in common. Second of all, make that movie The Hunger. 9.1/10
Cloudburst is just delightful. It’s a sweet, funny, touching film. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll be indignant and upset about the troubles queer senior citizens can face. 9.3/10
David Lynch is definitely not human but he has certainly mastered the human art form of the film. Mulholland Dr. is must-watch for any WLW out there who use the word film instead of movie. 9.5/10
Blue Gate Crossing is one of few movies that emphasizes friendship over romantic relationships. But even if there were more, Blue Gate Crossing would still be exceptional for its charm, relatable protagonist and strong performances. 7.8/10
There’s a great deal of things that happen in The Favourite. Some of it is queer love, some of it is politics, some of it is unknowable to me because director Yorgos Lanthimos is a weird dude. All of it is very, very good. 9.4/10
Show Me Love is a rare, accurate depiction of teenagers both in terms to how the characters are written and also because its cast of actors genuinely look like they belong in high school. Achieving both these feats makes Show Me Love a very rare film indeed. 7.8/10
Carmen and Lola is an above average coming-of-age film. The few problems I have with it don’t overrule the positives of this movie. It has great performances and characters I care about. Carmen and Lola feels alive as a movie. 7.5/10
