lesbian movie

For as long as I’ve been in the business of distributing lesbian and gay films it has been a struggle to realize our vision — both to get more lesbian movies created and to get them out into the world for all to see. Today, we face a new challenge — illegal file sharing and online movie piracy. To address this urgent problem, some of our community’s top filmmakers, actors and allies (Dreya Weber, Michelle Wolff, Ashleigh Sumner, Thea Gill, Nicole Conn, to name a few) have come forward with a simple message of fair play and personal responsibility — they’re asking YOU to support their work.

We all love reasons to watch lesbian films right? If you're anything like me, then you will enjoy traveling through the decades of lesbian cinema from the 60's to now.

2010 may just be a watershed moment for lesbian characters on film with Annette Bening garnering nomination after nomination for her portrayal of a wine-swilling, slightly controlling lesbian mom in Lisa Cholodenko’s The Kids Are Alright. While the Oscar nominations have not been released yet Bening’s a shoo-in for a nomination, and it would mark the first nomination for an actress playing a lead lesbian character who is not criminally insane. Charlize Theron in Monster and Judi Dench in Notes on a Scandal come to mind… We picked smaller films for our top including The Runaways, The Girl Who Played with Fire, A Marine Story, The Four-Faced Liar, The Secret Diaries of Miss Anne Lister, Chloe and more...

Big Hollywood summer popcorn flicks and lesbian-themed cinema don't typically collide, although there's an argument to be made that Angela Robinson's sexy spy story D.E.B.S and Jamie Babbit's teen angst / mini camp masterpiece But I'm a Cheerleader came pretty darned close. So here's a list of lesbian approved summer movies including Noomi Rapace as Lisbeth Salander, Annette Bening, Julianne Moore, Angelina Jolie, Julia Roberts, Tilda Swinton, Ally Sheedy, Nikki Reed and more...

We round up the best lesbian movies of ’09 — from dramas and documentaries to comedies even a horror film. Films like Whip It with Drew Barrymore and Ellen Page, Jennifer's Body with Megan Fox, Ameliawith Hilary Swank, And Then Came Lola with Cathy DeBuono and Jill Bennett, Precious, and Hannah Free with Sharon Gless, are among those on our list of the best lesbian movies this year.

Whether you're lucky enough to be headed to Sundance right now, or if you're just trying to keep up with the next best queer films, here's a quick run-down of what not to miss!

Summer popcorn flicks and thoughtful lesbian-themed cinema don't typically collide, When it comes to lesbians -- or women in general for that matter -- seeking representation on the big screen, the summer blockbuster season is fairly slim pickings next to the testosterone-laden superhero scenario on endless redux and the paean to the poor shlubby guy who always gets the hot girl comedies that apparently never get old in Hollywood. Girl Most Likely, Passion, Hot Flashes, Red 2.

Wouldn’t classic movies like A League of Their Own, Dangerous Liaisons and Thelma and Louise have been infinitely more satisfying if there were just one lesbian character among them? With our post from earlier this year, 10 TV Shows We Can’t Believe Don’t Have Gay Characters, as a springboard, we’ve reimagined 15 now classic movies using Gina Gershon’s super-smoldering Corky from Bound as the gold standard of cinematic lesbian characters.
