Released in 1975, this film has the twofold distinction of being the first Australian movie widely distributed to international audiences as well as being acclaimed director Peter Weir’s only second feature film. Set in an all-girl boarding school in South Australia, it’s difficult to place Picnic at Hanging Rock in any genre as it defies categorization; part mystery, part supernatural gothic and part visual poem to lost innocence, the...

Mona (Natalie Press) is a teenage girl who lives with her brother above a pub …well it used to be a pub until very recently. Mona’s brother Phil (Paddy Considine) has poured all the booze literally down the drain and converted it into a prayer center. Phil has just recently been released from prison where he has “found” God. Before then he was a violent, petty criminal. Mona’s father disappeared long ago and her mother recently died of...

Remember those popular lesbian pulp fiction books with the sexy cover illustrations? Me neither. It was before my time too. But we’ve all seen and yes, enjoyed (and even snorted at) those tawdry covers. Admit it ladies! It’s a guilty pleasure. Monica Nolan’s Lois Lenz, Lesbian Secretary is unabashed, campy parody. It completely spoofs the lesbian pulp fiction of the 1950’s and 1960’s as well as the beliefs and mores of the time. After her...

Glasgow, Scotland is not the first place that comes to mind when I think of the setting for an exciting, sexy, funny and entertaining tv show about a group of lesbian friends. But Glasgow is precisely the location of the BBC3’s hugely popular Lip Service. While the show follows various characters and story lines, it’s the love triangle formed by Cat (Laura Fraser), Frankie (Ruta Gedmintas) and Sam (Heather Peace) that forms the true axis...

Antes de escribir esta critica sinceramente dudaba si deberia escribir una opinión. La razón es porque Eros/Psique es una novela grafica y no siendo una lectora de novelas graficas o manga podría quizás no ser capaz de dar una crítica justa. Sin embargo, con el entendimiento de que los gustos son tan variados como las mujeres de nuestra comunidad y el deseo de llevar cuanto “contenido lésbico” este disponible a mis lectores me voy a...

Before there was “Loving Annabelle” or “Bloomington”, there was “Madchen in Uniform”; the story of a female student who falls in love with her female teacher. There’s two versions (both German) of this movie. There’s the 1931 black and white version which is presumably the first feature film produced with an openly pro lesbian story line and then there’s the 1958 Technicolor version which this post will cover.     The story takes...
