Lesbian Filmmaker Lauren Fash
Lauren Fash began her film career in 2007. She has held a variety of film crew positions from production assistant to writer to director. I became aware of Lauren when I watched her award winning film Quiet in 2012. Quiet is the story of a woman named Ali who is denied the right to make […]
A Long Lost Lesbian Daughter
In 2010 I started watching Lisa Kudrow’s PBS show “Who Do You Think You Are?â€. As an adopted person, I was suddenly awakened to the desire to figure out who I am. Now don’t get me wrong, I absolutely adored my parents. If there is an adoptive lottery, I won the multi-million dollar mega-millions. So, […]
Lessons in Lesbian Film Crowdfunding
In September of 2014 I decided to create a non-profit fiscal sponsor crowd funding organization. I have become well aware of the nail biting, gut wrenching, nose to the grindstone things that lesbian producers, directors and writers have had to do in order to literally squeeze dollars out of friends, family members and fans in […]
Kate Johnston, the Woman Behind ‘Tru Love’
New Series! The Women behind the Lesbian Films We Love: We watch their films. We watch their films many times. If we love their current film, we want more. And we want to know these writers, directors and producers who labor to bring poignant, dramatic, comedic or documentary films to us. This is the first […]
Lesbians! Don’t Be Afraid of ‘Vagina Wolf’
Last night I curled up on the sofa with my chenille comforter and pot of tea and watched Elizabeth Taylor scream at Richard Burton in the Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? Well what better way to get that image out of my mind than to download Who’s Afraid of Vagina Wolf? from Wolfe Video. And […]
Cholodenko-More than a ‘Lesbian’ Writer/Director
Lisa Cholodenko chooses her projects wisely. I first heard of her when in 1998 she wrote and directed the mesmerizing film High Art with Radha Mitchell, Ally Sheedy and Patricia Clarkson. It is a film with so many layers that you are drawn back to it over and over. Each time you discover another emotion, […]
Lesbians: Lets ‘Follow’ Frenchie Davis
We first met Frenchie Davis in 2003 when she appeared on American Idol. A few years later she belted out “I Kissed a Girl†on The Voice. She didn’t win but it didn’t affect her career. It didn’t stop her from garnering Broadway raves for her roles in RENT and DREAMGIRLS. Her recording contract is in […]
Gays and Lesbians Living on the Edge
I was pleased to hear that the Pope has formally said that gay people are okay. We are so okay that the Church accepts the fact that we can love each other just like heterosexual couples love each other. In fact, we are actually good for each other. The Pope wants Catholics to respect LGBT […]
Bringing Lesbian Films to Life
This morning I was at Brava Theater Center in San Francisco. I was finalizing the plans for the Northern California premiere of Anatomy of a Love Seen on November 1st. Epochalips.com and More Than Friends Productions, are bringing the film to the big screen in San Francisco. I was at Outfest in LA when it […]
The Conundrum of the ‘Femme’ Lesbian
Since I came out as a lesbian twenty-five years ago I have had a plethora of statements and questions about me that no one ever would have stated when they assumed I was straight. In the beginning, I got the proverbial, “I never would have guessed you were a lesbian†and the “Gee, you don’t […]
