Made for only $350,000 in 1985 when no one wanted to fund or star in a movie about lesbians, Desert Hearts is widely considered the first full-length lesbian love story, and its success paved the way for the proliferation of lesbian films we enjoy today.
Directed by Donna Deitch and set in 1950's Reno, Nevada, Desert Hearts tells the story of a 35-year-old uptight female professor Vivian (Helen Shaver) who comes to town to file for divorce and ends up falling in love with a free-spirited 25-year-old casino worker Cay (Patricia Charbonneau).
Although Vivian left her husband because she had "drowned in still waters," she is not quite prepared for the tidal wave-effect Cay has on her life. As Vivian herself admits, her life is all about "order," and her image of herself as a scholar and a professional, upstanding woman does not include a relationship with a woman. Cay, meanwhile, is living at home with her stepmother, Frances (Audra Lindley) while she waits to meet someone who "counts"--and she almost immediately recognizes that Vivian is that someone.
Both women struggle with conflicting desires and a sense of obligation to others, and are ultimately drawn together not just because of their attraction to each other, but because each woman offers the other something she has been unable to find on her own.。虽然Hannah Baker的故事已经说完了,但《十三个原因13 Reasons Why》的故事仍旧在继续,Netflix正式宣布续订这部根据同名小说改篇﹑在校园界略具争议的剧集第二季,并且Brian Yorkey会接替Diana Son成第二季制作人。 在首季讲述了女主为何会自杀后,第二季则会讲述她的死亡引起的余波﹑其他人复杂的康复旅途;第二季集数为13集,预定18年播出。。由吴宗宪、陈汉典、刘维、张绍刚、李彩桦、刘萌萌联袂主持的喜剧对话类节目。节目划分为男女两派,以男女思维天差地别为切入点,用喜剧的方式引出男女话题讨论。。
