Fragments of Love (2016)- NR

A woman reveals stories of previous lovers to her present lover, and he becomes one of those fragments of her love. The film is very erotic and plays on the switch of gender stenotypes where the woman reveals multiple lovers and very high sexual energy. Her sexual “trophies” force the male lovers to adjust to a greater sexual appetite. Most are unable to adjust. The film is stylish and well made. It is available on Netflix. 5/7/18

Below Her Mouth (2017)- NR

I wanted to give this five stars, but due to a lack of an ending and more plot development, I could not give it a full five stars. This however, does not detract from how great a movie it was.

I read other reviews pointing out that it has that realism which is why the plot it tried and true. The characters Dallas (Erika) and Jasmine (Natalie) have AMAZING chemistry!! You cannot turn away when they are on the screen and it does seem like they enjoyed each other and had a good time making the film. It shows and I think that only adds to their chemistry, seriousness, and humor.

The rating: I think that they chose an Unrated rating, because if they chose an NC-17 rating, it would hurt their viewership. By choosing an Unrated, it allows for a greater population to view the movie, and it does not have the scrutiny of what goes along with it. NC-17 ratings are often associated with either brutal violence, or extensive sex scenes, along with how much is shown for that extended period of time.

The United States has much to learn from this film, as they have yet to produce a worthy lesbian with a happy ending of a film. Sure they had Carol with Cate Blanchett, and Rooney Mara based on a Patricia Highsmith novel set in the 50's, and yes it did receive Oscar nominations, but they have yet to achieve what other foreign countries are capable of producing.

If you are in the mood for a good lesbian film where there is actual chemistry, and full frontal from the male in the film along with the women, this is for you. I am glad that the nudity does not exclude gender, as it is more often than not the female fully nude and the male not.  The film is available on Netflix. 3/1/18

Come Undone (2010)- NR

European acting is so superior to Hollywood. . It's a typical European film that depicts real life. ...And as so many times in European movies, the ending leaves you feeling uneasy and disturbed, very different from Hollywood movies.. makes you THINK. .. the moral of the story is adultery complicates lives. .. make your decision in current relationship first. To stay or to go, and if go. only then jump into something else. .. otherwise it will eventually leave everyone involved very hurt. .. The file is available on Netflix. 3/1/18

Anatomy of a Love Seen (2014)- NR

This movie is very good in that it is set on, you guessed it, a movie set. In Anatomy of a Love Seen, the anatomy of a relationship is played out in one scenic area, a movie set, in one day. The story is about two women that fell in love on a movie set during a love scene. They then fell out of love, but the director brought them back to re-shoot the love scene in hopes of re-starting their romance. Sharon Hinnendael  is excellent as Zoe. Her honesty is unabashed, and her approach to her lover is extremely believable. The love scenes are very erotic. This is a love story that is messy and complicated. The film is available on Netflix. 2/9/18
