Summary: BEST LESBIAN FILM EVER!!!
Review: I am a movie lover!! I have seen practically every lesbian movie made, from dramas filled with tragic figures to love stories. A Family Affair is the best lesbian film I have viewed in recent years. The lesbian community finally has a well written, funny and accurate portrayl of our love lives funny, dramatic and well not much different than our straight counterparts. It is time people got to see we are not so different just because of who we choose to love. This is a film every lesbian let alone person needs to see. You will likely see yourself in it in one of the well developed characters. The story is about a girl torn between two girls the new love and the old love. With a great cast and sexy actresses this film should not be missed. You will want to see this one over and over again and share it with everyone you know. Everyone I know who saw this film is literally in love with it. Here in Miami it is hard to find this film due to it selling out, I had to buy it on Amazon :)This will be the lesbian film we all look back on in years to come, plus it contains issues of gay marriage which are rather timely now. Go see it Go buy it This is a keeper!!

Summary: Original, fresh, romantic comedy-not just for lesbians/gays!
Review: I just picked this up last week in my local Blockbuster & am probably going to buy it now because I want to own it!! You don't need to be gay to appreciate excellent delineation of culture clash of gays v. straight, West Coast v. East Coast, Jewish v. other! Really, really funny w/ some GREAT lines - I spit out some Diet Coke on my husband. And well-acted, including Michelle Green of LA Law fame (still looks fab!! -darn her), who my husband appreciated (even though a little damp from Diet Coke). Lead character's parents were especially priceless/adorable.

Summary: I asked Blockbuster for my money back!!!
Review: As a general rule, I shy away from lesbian cinema because the acting is horrible. There are a few notable exceptions, such as: Aimee and Jaguar, When Night is Falling, and High Art. This film does not come close to the caliber of the three aforementioned films. This is quite possibly the worst lesbian movie ever made, and that is saying something.

Summary: just plain unfortunate
Review: This film is a lesson in banality. Unoriginal and un-funny this movie relies on lesbian stereotyping for 'laughs' or groans in this audience. A caricature of itself that is simply embrassing to watch.

Summary: A FUN ROMANTIC COMEDY
Review: A FAMILY AFFAIR is another fun lesbian release from Wolfe Video. In this film, Rachel is a diehard New Yorker who moves to San Diego after ending a bad relationship. Her mother, a devout member of PFLAG, set Rachel up on a blind date with Christine. As times goes by Rachel believes she has finally found a compatible partner until their one-year anniversary when Christine begins discussing marriage and religion conversion. All of a sudden Rachel's world turns upside down as she must face her fears of commitment. To make matters worse her New York ex-girlfriend makes an unexpected appearance before the wedding to lure Rachel back to the Big Apple. This film is fresh and is full of fun and humor that any lesbian could relate to (i.e., jokes about U-Haul dating). The acting is good and the screenplay is realistic. A FAMILY AFFAIR is a testament that the quality of lesbian films has greatly approved over recent years. Kudos! Also worth checking out is WATCHING YOU, another recent Wolfe Video release that is also fun and fresh.

Summary: A New Classic For Lesbian Cinema!!!
Review: Funny and Sexy are the two words I first think of when I talk about this film to friends. Everyone I know who saw this film at film festivals last year loved it. Whether it was for the sharp funny wit of the writing or the great acting or simply the(very) sexy stars, everyone left the film knowing we all saw something special. It is about a girl who finally picks up and leaves an ex in New York (though deep down her emotions have not died) Then she moves to California and finds a hot new girlfriend. And just as she and the new girl look like they are headed for "wedded bliss," the ex arrives in California to get her back! This movie has everything, great actresses who you will recognize from other mainstream films and TV, and characters you will love and identify with. This is a classic lesbian film, that will be treasured by all who see it.

Summary: LESBIAN FILMAKING AT ITS BEST!
Review: This film is about how universal relationships are no matter what your sexual orientation. It has a sense of humor, your laughter will be evident. The cast is filled with quality actors, a rare occurance in gay filmaking. The story is about a woman who leaves NY to move to California; to get away from her evil ex ( the kind you break up and get back together with year after year...)...And then in California she finds love with a new sexy blonde girlfriend (as we all should),They get together and of course the next thing you know, just as things are getting good, the ex-girlfriend,whose really hot, comes to California to break them up and take her back to NY (There won't be a girl watching this movie who will not want to be in the same situation) ...So who does she choose? Who would you choose?... My friends and I after seeing this film debated that same choice for hours...This is a funny & sexy movie (w/SEX scenes :)...And you'll appreciate how well made the film is..It is great to see the development of lesbian film making over the last 20 years...this is a great film, no one is dealing with issues of being gay or coming out...these women are far more together than those lost fragile heriones of the past...the wome in A Family Affair are who we are (a combination of strength and emotion), not who society thinks we are...This film will be watched and remembered for years to come.

Summary: A Refreshing Lesbian Film, One of the Best!!
Review: "A Family Affair," is an oasis in the midst of lesbian film making. It is extremely well written and well acted. It is about a girl who breaks up with her on again off again girlfriend and changes coasts...eventually she meets a beautiful sexy California Girl played by the hottest actress ever in a lesbian film Erica Shaeffer(whom her mom introduces her too, we should all have moms like that!) and just as things are looking too good to be true along comes the ex-girlfriend, played by sexy Michelle Greene...Torn between two lovers! This film is a combination of comedy, drama and sex...What makes this film refreshing is that it is not about sterotypes or girls trying to find themselves, or dealing with angst or coming out...these women are out and the issue is a non-issue...It's about relationships and all the themes we all go through straight or gay...This should be in everyones home DVD library..and it is a great date film for girls and boys alike!! Helen Lesnick made a classic in her directoral debut!

Summary: yawnnnn..oh, is the movie over?
Review: One of the most boring lesbian movies ever made. When will we get quality flicks that don't always have to explain about being a lesbian and just be it and be GOOD? I reccomend "By Hook Or By Crook"- that movie rocked a@$!!

Summary: Don't be mistaken with the opening
Review: I saw the start of this movie on my mom's TiVo but it did not record the whole movie. I thought the opening was cute and funny. So I rushed out and rented the DVD. Boy am I glad I only rented it. The only good thing about the whole movie is that its filmed in San Diego (my home town) so I knew the areas they were in. Other then that it was all around lame. If you must see it RENT IT DO NOT PURCHASE, unless your looking for a dust collecting DVD to add to your collection.
