Go Fish

it's sort of a cross between Dykes to Watch Out For and MTV's The Real World.

Desert Hearts

probably the best known lesbian film of the 80's. see it with someone you love and get all sappy and stuff.

Salmonberries

it's got kd lang in it and takes place in alaska. that's about all i know about it. another sapphite has this to say:

It helps if you've seen other Percy Adlon stuff and can tolerate it. The plot or point only really gets any shape towards the end. You do get full frontal nudity of k.d., but the situation is so bizarre its not sexy (BTW, she really *is* a Big Boned Gal!). There is also what one sapphite described as "the little love scene that couldn't" k.d.'s acting doesn't come across well, but I'm starting to think its the directing. Some nice arctic scenary.

Cardiff's Movie Database Browser has a plot summary of it.

Even Cowgirls Get the Blues

Tom Robbins' philosophical fable encapsulated within a funky story about hitchhiking and cowgirls and birds and stuff has been turned into a movie. I saw it. it was less horrible than i'd heard. i kinda liked it. i loved the book, which probably made me fairly accepting of the movie... it was fun...

Desperate Remedies

Colonial New Zealand as it never was! High camp, some incredible costumes, zany humour. The two women eventually sail off into the sunset together, leaving a litter of male bodies.
