What's On Tonight? Film Podcast – Details, episodes & analysis

Films centered on lesbians and sapphics that have a happy ending are few and far between, which is why I wanted to highlight and recommend two to check out:

The Incredibly True Adventure of Two Girls in Love (1995)

and

Bound (1996)

We go over the cast and director, loves and dislikes, quotes, who is the audience for these films, and my favorite - the Donnie Thornberry Count.

I had to bring it up... the Bechdel Test. Who is she? Why do we keep using her as a test if movies are of quality? I chat a little bit about that and two movies that pass the Bechdel Test:

and

The Daytrippers (1997)

We go over the cast and director, loves and dislikes, quotes, and who is the audience for these films!
