We love movies. We love lesbians . We REALLY love lesbian-themed movies featuring girl-on-girl love and/or action.
From gay cheerleaders in rom-coms to David Lynch’s neo-noir mystery and The Wachowskis crime thriller, here are some of our favourite movies with lesbian characters .
Keep scrolling for Kate Winslet, Angelina Jolie, Cate Blanchett, Julianne Moore, Meryl Streep, Naomi Watts, Lena Headey, Gina Gershon and many, many more in some superb sapphic roles.
This 1994 psychological drama directed by Lord of the Rings’ Peter Jackson is based on the notorious 1954 Parker–Hulme murder case in Christchurch, New Zealand.
Melanie Lynskey and Kate Winslet star as Pauline Parker and Juliet Hulme respectively, two teenage girls who murder Pauline’s mother, who – alongside Juliet’s parents – has been trying to separate the pair.
Starring Meryl Streep, Julianne Moore and Nicole Kidman, this 2002 from Stephen Daldry is based on Michael Cunningham’s Pulitzer Prize-winning novel of the same name.
The Hours follows Clarissa Vaughan (Streep) in New York in 2001, Laura Brown (Moore) in 1950s Los Angeles, and Virginia Woolf (Kidman) in 1920s England. All three women’s lives and loves are connected via Woolf’s novel Mrs Dalloway.
David Lynch (Twin Peaks) is behind 2001 neo-noir mystery Mulholland Drive, which stars Naomi Watts and Laura Harring as Betty and Rita.
The plot follows the two strangers as they grow closer, eventually sleeping together in a passionate encounter.
Angelina Jolie stars in this 1998 biographical film as Gia Carangi, one of America’s first supermodels.
Directed by Michael Cristofer, it also stars Faye Dunaway as Wilhelmina Cooper, Gia’s agent, and Elizabeth Mitchell as Linda, Gia’s lover.
When Wilhelmina dies, Gia turns to cocaine, prompting Linda to give her an ultimatum. Gia chooses the drugs, before turning to heroin, eventually contracting HIV which progresses to AIDS.
Jamie Babbit’s 1999 romantic comedy stars Natasha Lyonne ( Orange is the New Black ) as Megan Bloomfield, a high school cheerleader who gets sent to therapy camp True Directions to cure her lesbianism.
Fortunately, she ends up getting it on with fellow camper Graham (Clea DuVall) because, as we all know, gayness needs no cure.
Starring Piper Perabo and Game of Thrones’ Lena Headey (*phwoar*), Imagine Me & You (2005) follows Rachel (Perabo) and Luce (Headey), who meet on Rachel’s wedding day.
Rachel befriends Luce, her wedding florist, and attempts to set up with her husband’s friend Cooper – before finding out that Luce is a lesbian.
She begins to question her own sexuality – who wouldn’t with Lena Headey hanging around – as she grows close to Luce and is forced to make a choice.
This 2010 Spanish film, directed by Julio Medem, follows the emotional and sexual relationship between two women (Alba and Natasha) over the course of one night in a hotel in, you guessed it, Rome.
Starring Lisa Ray and Sheetal Sheth, this 2008 romance film from Shamim Sarif follows a Middle Eastern woman named Tala and her British Indian lover Leyla.
Tala, who lives in London, is preparing to get married, but she falls in love with Leyla and the pair begin an affair.
This 2001 film was written and co-produced by the film’s stars Jennifer Westfeldt and Heather Juergensen.
It follows Jessica Stein, who is searching for the perfect man, but instead falls in love with a woman, and sees her struggling to come out of the closet to her family.
Loving Annabelle (2006) follows Annabelle, a student at a Catholic boarding school who falls in love with her teacher, Simone – and it’s not unrequited. Directed by Katherine Brooks, this romantic drama stars Erin Kelly and Diane Gaidry.
Gina Gershon and Jennifer Tilly star in this 1996 neo-noir crime thriller film as Corky and Violet, respectively.
Written and directed by The Wachowskis, Bound follows Violet, who is dating a mafioso man called Caesar, and Corky, a convicted criminal-turned-plumber.
Celebs you didn’t know have an LGBT sibling
The two women begin having an affair, before coming up with a scheme to steal $2 million of mafia money.
This 2015 film from Todd Haynes is based on the 1952 novel The Price of Salt by Patricia Highsmith.
It stars Cate Blanchett (*swoon*), Rooney Mara and Sarah Paulson and tells the story of a forbidden affair between an aspiring female photographer and an older woman going through a difficult divorce in 1950s New York.

She Knows
Clockwise from top left: “Bound,” “But I’m a Cheerleader,” “The Watermelon Woman,” and “Set It Off.”
Inspired by the success of Todd Haynes’ “Poison” and frustrated by lesbian films that looked nothing like their actual lesbian lives, Rose Troche and Guinevere Turner decided to take matters into their own hands by shooting a tiny little indie called “Go Fish” in 1994. Filmed in black and white in Chicago for an estimated $15,000, “Go Fish” went on to make roughly $2.4 million, proving indies could make a profit. Turner played Max, a headstrong writer who begins dating the older, quieter Ely (V.S. Brodie), despite initial reservations. Max’s friends, a jovial lesbian peanut gallery, offer unsolicited advice and plenty of laughs. No one dies, and no one comes out; a novelty for gay films at the time. “Go Fish” not only changed the game for queer cinema, but for indie film of all kinds.
Angst-ridden teenagers come in all shapes and predilections, a fact this prettily gritty coming-of-age film celebrates. Two years after Larry Clark’s controversial “Kids” came out, “All Over Me” properly queered up New York’s counterculture as seen through the eyes of Claude (Allison Folland), a gentle loner who follows her wild best friend, Ellen (Tara Subkoff), around like a sad puppy. She has a chance at breaking free when she meets pink-haired cutie Lucy (Leisha Hailey), but gets pulled back in when Ellen’s boyfriend drama becomes dire. By Hollywood standards, Claude’s extra baby fat made her an unconventional lead, which only adds to the film’s rebellious charm. Like “Desperately Seeking Susan” with kissing, or “Kids” without homophobia, “All Over Me” borrowed from the greats, and remains wholly original.
The great AIDS activist and playwright Larry Kramer often says gay people are smarter than other people. If that entirely subjective and thoroughly provocative statement has any merit, the reason would be childhood. Gay people become self-reflective early; you become acutely aware of the world around you by observing your place outside of it. There is not a single film that captures a more universal queer childhood experience than Céline Sciamma’s “Tomboy,” a quietly gorgeous portrait of a 10-year-old named Laure who moves to a new town and introduces herself as Mikael. It’s the kind of movie that’ll have you waiting on your ex’s doorstep just to talk about it. (True story, but not my own). “Tomboy” strikes the perfect balance between lighthearted and heartbreaking, between the joy of a fantasy realized and the harsh sting of reality. Though the film came out in 2011, it feels utterly timeless; the golden days of Laure’s summer could — and do — belong to anyone who recognizes themselves.
Before The Wachowskis became a worldwide sensation with “The Matrix,” and long before either came out as transgender, the directing duo showed early signs of queerness with “Bound.” A noir thriller starring Gina Gershon and Jennifer Tilly as ex-con Corky and femme fatale Violet, “Bound” gave the world the most sumptuous partners in crime that queer cinema has ever seen. Fresh out of the joint and set up with a gig as a handyman, Corky catches Violet’s eye while plugging a leak in her boyfriend’s apartment, a crooked mobster by the name of Caesar (the always excellent Joe Pantoliano). Violet soon learns Corky is great with all kinds of plumbing, and they begin a secret love affair. Desperate to run off together, they hatch a plan to steal millions from Caesar’s bosses and pin the blame on him.
Tilly uses her signature husky voice to hide her cleverness behind a ditzy persona, and Gershon proves her acting mettle by rocking that motorcycle jacket as well as any true leather dyke. Wearing its noir influences proudly on its sleeve, “Bound” is not only a classic lesbian film, but it’s also the only Wachowski-directed project firmly outside the sci-fi genre. That makes it a rare window into this iconic directing duo, and one that LGBT viewers have proudly embraced into the fold.
For the concept, the chemistry, and the camp, Jamie Babbit’s “But I’m a Cheerleader” takes the cake. Unapologetically queer in all senses of the word, (this is the kind of movie for which terms like “offbeat” and “quirky” were invented), this film makes low budget look cool. When it came out in 1999, it was the final gasp of the New Queer Cinema, a bridge between the indies that brought the first wave of gay stories to the screen and the post-Ellen era that paved the way for more commercial fare like “The L Word.” At its heart was a love story as sweet and sexy as an audience might hope for.
Set in the present day with a bold retro aesthetic, the movie stars a young Natasha Lyonne as Megan, an innocent cheerleader sent to a rehab for gay and lesbian teens. The patients wear pink and blue uniforms while learning about gender roles and preparing for straight-sex simulations. Of course, putting a bunch of gay kids in a house together is bound to create some sexual tension, and Megan‘s gay little heart stands no chance against the dark and brooding Graham (Clea Duvall). Babbit delivers the best of both worlds with a genuine and touching romance that blossoms amidst the wildly entertaining satire. Featuring an all-star cast that includes RuPaul, Melanie Lynskey, Michelle Williams, Cathy Moriarty (“Patti Cake$”), Eddie Cibrian, and brief appearances by Julie Delpy and Ione Skye, “But I’m a Cheerleader” has everything.

yall are nuts. tipping the velvet is the greatest even though its a bit of a 3 part mini series. i have the dvd and its set up like a movie. it is so superior to so many listed.
I agree, Pheebs, it surprises me that the author of this article is a woman. But excellent suggestions in the comments thread. I’d also like to see films that don’t end in tragedy or are trying to show that love between women is inferior or short-lived, until the real thing comes along.
You missed FIRE! Also, Lost and Delirious and Fingersmith should be on the list! And Clair of the Moon, and Better than Chocolate?
Not sure if this one qualifies but The Hunger was one all us lesbians watched in the 80’s. It and Go Fish, Clair of the Moon and Desert Hearts were all we had. I would say The Hunger deserves a spot due to the fact that it contains THE BEST flirtation in the history of lesbian film in the scene between Catherine Deneuve and Susan Sarandon when Catherine’s character, Miriam, is seducing Sarandon’s character, Sarah, while playing Lakme’s Delibes, “The Flower Duet” on the piano. OMG, heart pitter patters every time I see that scene! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L_2D3Wxoprc
Although real late to the party. I think a couple of these movies should be removed because they actually AREN’T lesbian. As good as Fried Green Tomato’s is the movie didn’t actually have any real lesbian content so I wouldn’t call it a lesbian movie. But I would also cut
You can’t please everyone but I do think the #1 Lesbian movie should have been PERSONAL BEST with Mariel Hemingway.
My vote for nest lesbian film is “Amour de Femme” a French movie starring Rafaella Anderson and Helene Fillieres
“Heavenly creatures” is so bad, please remove it from your list! It’s not a love story, it’s just about 2 deranged teenagers committing a grisly murder. Even having it on this “top 15 lesbian movies” is borderline homophobic.
Very disappointing list! No Love for Spidarlings?
Although not sexualized, much like Thelma & Louise has everyone forgotten Fried Green Tomatoes? That is one of the best love stories of all films (my opinion), I haven’t seen many of the others
