  “well… unshelter me”

  in this moment i can’t for the life of me recall a more singularly charming teen rom com, regardless of how low budget and silly it might be. really wish i had discovered this on accident while flipping through channels when i was younger but annoyingly could barely even find it this week when i finally sought it out. this is so so so so so so CUTE

  Review by Sally Jane Black 1

  This feels like the half-step on the evolution to the modern insufferable lesbian romcom. This is not to say this is insufferable; it's cute, funny, and touching. It has the charm of mid-90s indie to it that doesn't have the petty bourgeois stink to it. Instead, we have one petty bourgeois lesbian and a bunch of working class ones. We have consequences to being queer. We have threats of violence. We have tires getting kicked and gay boys with bad mustaches. We have references to Walt Whitman and Rubyfruit Jungle that are sincere, organic (well, the latter is more a good joke in context, but still), and contextualized by actual queer struggles. It's not the gutter-cast queer survival horror that is the real life for far too many, but it's got a twang and a lot of angry parents and the very lesbian dedication at the end.

  Review by marie❦ ★★★★★

  two girls fall in love with each other through love notes and long talks while playing in fields, and they eventually come out together to their friends and family. if this isn’t the most humanizing, simple, and caring portrayal of two teenage girls in love then I don’t know what is. the incredibly true adventure of two girls in love (1995) is really just a soft wholesome movie and there’s nothing bad you can say about it.

  
  also...I’m reading the reviews to this film and seeing someone say they wish they had seen this movie when they were seventeen, and me watching it for the first time at 17.....

  also, i finally found a character i really relate to and that is evie. evie and her mom reminded me of my mom and i lol. Ok
