- DirectorTodd HaynesStarsCate BlanchettRooney MaraSarah PaulsonAn aspiring photographer develops an intimate relationship with an older woman in 1950s New York.Probably my all time favourite, the acting is superb (can't go wrong with Cate Blanchett!) beautiful cinematography and a great director. Based on Patricia Highsmith's novel "The Price of Salt" definitely worth a watch around Christmas time too! Oh, with out any spoilers... it doesn't end it tragedy this time! Win!
- DirectorJamie BabbitStarsNatasha LyonneClea DuVallMichelle WilliamsA naive teenager is sent to rehab camp when her straitlaced parents and friends suspect her of being a lesbian.Don't let the cover put you off, it's actually a quirky but witty comedy about a teenage girl who is sent to a conversion camp to "cure" her lesbianism. It's pure satire but it's a classic for most Queers, it stars Clea DuVall, Melanie Lynskey, Natasha Lyonne and you'll even see a young Ru Paul!
- DirectorCéline SciammaStarsNoémie MerlantAdèle HaenelLuàna BajramiOn an isolated island in Brittany at the end of the eighteenth century, a female painter is obliged to paint a wedding portrait of a young woman.Probably one of those most stunningly beautiful movies I've ever seen, it's heart warming and heart breaking at the same time. There's nothing I don't like about it, director and writer Céline Sciamma is a master. Make sure you pay attention to the details in this one, watch it more than once. Also one of my all time favourite movies.
- DirectorMax FärberböckStarsMaria SchraderJuliane KöhlerJohanna WokalekIn 1943 Berlin, a Nazi officer's wife meets and starts a passionate affair with a Jewish woman.A little gem of a movie! German film based on a true story. Set during WW2... it’s a beautiful but heart breaking story.
- DirectorLana WachowskiLilly WachowskiStarsJennifer TillyGina GershonJoe PantolianoTough ex-con Corky and her lover Violet concoct a scheme to steal millions of stashed mob money and pin the blame on Violet's crooked boyfriend Caesar.Jennifer Tilly and Gina Gershon, if that's not enough I don't know what is. Written and Directed by two women. Lana Wachowski and Lilly Wachowski.
- DirectorSebastián LelioStarsRachel WeiszRachel McAdamsAlessandro NivolaA woman returns to her Orthodox Jewish community that shunned her for her attraction to a female childhood friend. Once back, their passions reignite as they explore the boundaries of faith and sexuality.Based on the book of the same title, not the best movie overall, but good acting and... that sex scene.
- DirectorClea DuVallStarsKristen StewartMackenzie DavisMary SteenburgenA holiday romantic comedy that captures the range of emotions tied to wanting your family's acceptance, being true to yourself, and trying not to ruin Christmas.Co-written and directed by Clea DuVall, I have to admit, I wasn't impressed by the story. For a queer Christmas movie it could have been much better. They really had a better outcome staring them in the face with Aubrey Plaza's character, she deserved better. Anyway, Kristen Stewart and Aubrey Plaza in a "gay" Christmas movie is pretty good.
- DirectorDonna DeitchStarsHelen ShaverPatricia CharbonneauAudra LindleyWhile waiting for her divorce papers, a repressed professor of literature is unexpectedly seduced by a carefree, spirited young lesbian.Classic!
- DirectorMichael CristoferStarsAngelina JolieFaye DunawayElizabeth MitchellThe story of the life of Gia Carangi, a top fashion model from the late 1970s, from her meteoric rise to the forefront of the modeling industry, to her untimely death.Some of Angelina Jolie's finest work, not a happy story but worth a watch.
- DirectorPeter JacksonStarsMelanie LynskeyKate WinsletSarah PeirseTwo teenage girls share a unique bond: their parents, concerned that the friendship is too intense, separate them, and the girls take revenge.Classic. Based on the real life diaries of Pauline Parker, played by Melanie Lynskey. She and her best friend Juliette Hulme played by Kate Winslet plot to kill one of their mothers' when she tries to end their obsessive and very intense relationship. Gruesome but a great movie!
- DirectorOl ParkerStarsPiper PeraboLena HeadeyMatthew GoodeA newlywed bride becomes infatuated with another woman who questions her sexual orientation, promoting a stir among the bride's family and friends.Cute movie with a happy ending (for some).
- DirectorAlice WuStarsJoan ChenMichelle KrusiecLynn ChenA gay Chinese-American and her traditionalist mother are reluctant to go public with secret loves that clash against cultural expectations.
- DirectorDee ReesStarsAdepero OduyeKim WayansAasha DavisA Brooklyn teenager juggles conflicting identities and risks friendship, heartbreak and family in a desperate search for sexual expression.
- DirectorCheryl DunyeStarsCheryl DunyeGuinevere TurnerValarie WalkerA young black lesbian filmmaker probes into the life of The Watermelon Woman, a 1930s black actress who played 'mammy' archetypes.
- DirectorJane AndersonMartha CoolidgeAnne HecheStarsVanessa RedgraveMarian SeldesPaul GiamattiTrio of stories about lesbian couples in three different decades.If you can stand to watch Ellen DeGeneres these days.
- DirectorAlice WuStarsLeah LewisDaniel DiemerAlexxis LemireWhen smart but cash-strapped teen Ellie Chu agrees to write a love letter for a jock, she doesn't expect to become his friend - or fall for his crush.More of a crush story than a love story.
- DirectorKaryn KusamaStarsMegan FoxAmanda SeyfriedAdam BrodyA newly-possessed high-school cheerleader turns into a succubus who specializes in killing her male classmates. Can her best friend put an end to the horror?It's not exactly a lesbian movie, it has "that" kiss scene. But I still like this movie, it's a horror and directed by a woman so I'm in.
- DirectorCatherine CorsiniStarsCécile de FranceIzïa HigelinNoémie LvovskyA young woman moves from the French countryside to Paris and begins a passionate love affair with a feminist leader in this drama set in 1970s France.I watched it but I can't remember what happened, make of that what you will.
- DirectorTali Shalom-EzerStarsElliot PageKate MaraAmy SeimetzThe daughter of a man on death row falls in love with a woman on the opposing side of her family's political cause.
- DirectorFrancis LeeStarsKate WinsletSaoirse RonanGemma Jones1840s England, acclaimed but overlooked fossil hunter Mary Anning and a young woman sent to convalesce by the sea develop an intense relationship, altering both of their lives forever.OK, so it's slow and quite boring at times. But I'll watch anything with Kate Winslet, especially Kate Winslet as a lesbian. Some people love it, some don't.
- DirectorPratibha ParmarStarsLaura FraserShelley ConnArt MalikA feisty young woman returns to Glasgow to run her deceased father's curry house.
- DirectorAngela RobinsonStarsSara FosterJordana BrewsterDevon AokiPlaid-skirted schoolgirls are groomed by a secret government agency to become the newest members of the elite national-defense group, D.E.B.S.
- DirectorWilliam WylerStarsAudrey HepburnShirley MacLaineJames GarnerA rebellious student at a girls' school accuses two teachers of lesbianism.Love this movie!
- DirectorJordan ScottStarsEva GreenJuno TempleMaría ValverdeA look at the lives and relationships among girls at an elite boarding school.
- DirectorYorgos LanthimosStarsOlivia ColmanEmma StoneRachel WeiszIn early 18th-century England, the status quo at the court is upset when a new servant arrives and endears herself to a frail Queen Anne.Rachel Weisz does it again. This is a good movie, a nice twist on a period film.
