Lesbian (& Other WLW) Movies
Favs/dislikes: 6:0. This is a (non-exhaustive) list of movies that feature lesbian, bisexual, or queer women. I've tried to focus on movies that have explicitly queer women but have included some titles where the subtext has been considered noteworthy. Movies focused on trans men or straight trans women will not be included. I made this list for my own reference but decided to make it public in case someone else wants to dive into lesbian cinema. Please note that this is not intended to be a list of good lesbian films. A significant percentage of the movies are bad, contain harmful stereotypes, or are otherwise a poor representation of the community. If you don't want to waste time on those films I suggest you look to one of the other lesbian-related lists on this site. Leave a comment if you feel I've missed any movies that should be added! -
Autostraddle's Best Lesbian, Queer & Bisexual Movies of All Time
Favs/dislikes: 2:0. Films aimed at lesbian, bisexual and queer women have never exactly been noted for their universal excellence. Hollywood is a notoriously sexist machine and it’s hard enough to get a solid film about women made, let alone a solid film about women who prefer the company of other women. While unprecedented progress is being made on television, film lags sadly behind, offering few, if any, portrayals of LGBTQ women. Curating a ranked list of the best lesbian movies (and otherwise queer movies) of all time was not easy. It involved some rounds of nominations and voting from our own team members, Riese watching so many lesbian movies in such a short period of time that she lost her overall ability to determine “good” from “bad,” a surveyance of other lists and reading a ton of movie reviews to come up with the most objective list possible. Note: This list was an updated version from the other same lists on this site. Autostraddle has since rehauled the list so completely I've made it into a newer, separate list. I've kept this list up despite being outdated in case anyone is curious as to what it used to be. The source URL on this will take you to an archived version of Autostraddle's list that matches this list.
