I just finished watching Bloomington. I am not amused. I loved the first half of the movie, the two actresses have great chemistry, but the second half just went downhill (with a very slight uphill towards the end when they kinda sorta made up). Whenever I watch romantic movies between a man and woman, they always end up together, but I have not seen a happy lesbian movie. Maybe I'm looking in the wrong places. I just don't get it....it's so frustrating.

                        The books tend not to be much happier!

                        I say it goes back to the days of the 1950s at least, when to make it past the censors, relationships in lesbian pulp fiction had to include one crazy lesbian, one woman who ended up being straight after all (BISEXUALITY IS A MYTH RIGHT) and one terrible terrible breakup.
Also? Lesbian movies are usually made on teeny tiny budgets.

                        I long for a romantic comedy about lesbians. Just straight-up fluff and laughs, touching ending and all. Is that so much to ask? I'm with you, Graniteal.

                        I totally agree! Why can't they just show a happy lesbian couple (but not make fun of it)? There's Something in the Water is the happiest lesbian movie I've ever seen, and it still isn't super funny.

                        idk but i think it dates back to when it was socially UNACCEPTABLE to even have fiction about gay people unless they were 'taught a lesson' or some shit at the end. there was a loooot of lesbian literature like that, so maybe it's like...an ingrained cultural habit, if that makes sense

                        I feel like one of the few socially acceptable ways of portraying queer couples is if it involves some aspect of "gay tragedy," which is a shame because it implied that queer couples cannot be happy long-term.

                        Ugh I hate this. I've been reading quite a few lesbian YA novels and so far all of them have been extremely depressing. Three sad books in a row! There really should just be gay fluff like there's straight fluff. Not every gay relationship is some horrible tragedy!!

                        Seconding 'Imagine Me and You'! It's one of my favorite lesbian movies.

                        A lot of them are way too depressing. My favorite ones that have happy endings are Imagine Me & You and But I'm A Cheerleader. I heard good things about Saving Face, but I haven't personally seen it.
