We look back through film history at 10 of the greatest movies about lesbians.
It’s tricky to pinpoint the moment when the movie world could proclaim the first openly lesbian film. Identifying early cinematic representations of lesbianism was like collecting crumbs off the top table. Sapphic sisters were used to watching whole films just to see a character (usually portrayed as victim, killer, neurotic or prostitute) shoot a covert look that audiences could interpret as queer – for instance, the apparent lesbian subtext between Vienna (Joan Crawford) and Emma (Mercedes McCambridge) in Nicholas Ray’s Johnny Guitar (1954).
In the UK, 1967 was a milestone, the year that homosexuality was decriminalised (even if there was no mention of lesbianism in the new legislation). In the USA, the 1969 Stonewall riots were a turning point that led to the beginning of the modern gay and lesbian liberation movement. From those moments on, lesbians have been slowly coming out on celluloid, albeit often controlled by the gaze of male directors.

In tracking the key films of lesbian cinema, we’ve restricted our list to films available on DVD or for streaming in the UK. This sadly means we’ve had to leave out many favourites: Mädchen in Uniform (1931), Club de femmes (1936), Personal Best (1982), Virgin Machine (1988), and great films by Ulrike Ottinger and Chantal Akerman. Which begs the question, why are there not more lesbian films available to watch on DVD/VoD? After all, Walter Benjamin did say that the lesbian is the heroine of modernism…
Childie: Not all women are raving bloody lesbians, you know.
George: That is a misfortune I am perfectly well aware of!
The Killing of Sister George is one of the greatest and most grotesque of all lesbian crossover films. Life B.G. (before George) held little hope for cinema-loving lesbians. Pre-decriminalisation dramas included 1967’s The Fox, which has the basic premise that all a lesbian needs is a man, and 1963’s The World Ten Times Over, which is possibly the first British lesbian film but was heavily censored before its release.
All hail Beryl Reid, magnetic in her portrayal of George, a loud, aggressive, cigar-chomping dyke who loses her job and her young lover. It has the mother of all lesbian love triangles: butch girl-chasing George; the predatory, sophisticated middle-class dyke (Coral Brown), and Childie, the coquettish neurotic femme (Susannah York). Rated X for its explicit sex scene, the film tanked at the box office but remains an era-defining cult classic. Significantly, some scenes were shot in an actual London lesbian bar, The Gateways Club, giving audiences a rare on-screen glimpse of London lesbian culture.
Born in Los Angeles but a New Yorker by choice, Barbara Hammer is a whole genre unto herself. Her pioneering 1974 short film Dyketactics, a 4-minute, hippie wonder consisting of frolicking naked women in the countryside, broke new ground for its exploration of lesbian identity, desire and aesthetic. Abdellatif Kechiche, director of last year’s sexually sensationalist Blue Is the Warmest Colour, might have done better if he had taken a leaf out of Hammer’s book. Hammer calls the film her ‘lesbian commercial’.
She went on to become one of the brightest and most significant lesbian avant-garde filmmaking voices of the past 40 years, whose work includes over 80 film and video works covering lesbian love and sex, women’s spirituality, radical feminist politics, the figure of the goddess, and lesbian/queer film history. Without Hammer, there would be no Born in Flames (1983), no Desert Hearts (1985), no Go Fish (1994).
At time of writing, Ukraine is going through a 21st-century revolution and if the geopolitical land grab ends in victory for Russia, with its anti-gay laws, then the future for Ukraine’s LGBT community will be uncertain.
Another Way is set in another eastern European country dealing with its own revolution: Hungary immediately after the failed 1956 uprising against communism. The film details a courageous and intelligent love story between 2 pro-democracy journalists. The topic was a double taboo because it was the first Hungarian film to deal with homosexuality as well as a controversial look back at the consequences of the revolution. Director Károly Makk sensitively juxtaposes this tender but doomed love affair with the high hopes and bitter suppression of the Budapest Spring. It’s clear that Makk was not especially interested in homosexual rights in 1950s Hungary; nevertheless his portrayal of lesbianism is neither exploitative nor melodramatic.
Oh la la! C’est Paris, c’est magnifique! Well it would have been magic if you happened to be a boho creative woman living on the city’s Left Bank in the early decades of the 20th century. Greta Schiller’s absorbing investigative documentary could have been called Paris Was a Lesbian for the amount of Sapphos living, working and loving together. Writers Collette, Djuna Barnes, Gertrude Stein, Alice B. Toklas, poets H.D. and Natalie Clifford Barney, booksellers Sylvia Beach and Adrienne Monnier… the list goes on and on.
Schiller (Before Stonewall, 1984), together with her long-term collaborator Andrea Weiss, rewrites (her)story with unseen home movies and new research to create a magical film about this most original of women’s artistic communities. Weiss’ British queer film history documentary A Bit of Scarlet (1997) is also worth a look and can be watched on the BFI Player.
No lesbian film list is complete without the Wachowski siblings’ dazzling sexy noir/crime caper/slapstick comedy Bound. It was their pre-Matrix breakout film, a titillating Playboy hybrid thriller mashed up into a lesbian feminist love story. The Wachowskis don’t just play with the male gaze, they flip it sunny side up and get feminist writer Susie Bright in as their lesbian ‘sexpert’.
The story concerns a mobster’s girlfriend falling in love with the ex-con dyke next door. Jennifer Tilly and Gina Gershon positively sizzle as couple on the run, Violet and Corky, giving audiences plenty of girl-on-girl action. Taking inspiration from Billy Wilder and their love of comics, Bound completed a 90s trilogy of (in critic B. Ruby Rich’s phrase) ‘Lethal Lesbians’ films (beginning with Thelma & Louise, 1991, and Basic Instinct, 1992) – a cinematic expression of lesbian feminist desire.
US indie writer/director/educator Cheryl Dunye burst onto the New Queer Cinema scene in 1996 with The Watermelon Woman, an audacious, self-styled ‘Dunyementary’. However, it’s her rarely screened follow-up film, Stranger Inside, which really impresses. Made for HBO and produced by R.E.M.’s Michael Stipe, it’s set within the US women’s prison system and tells the story of an incarcerated young African-American woman who goes in search of her biological mother.
Based on 4 years of research into the lives of women inside, the drama is a powerful study of prison life in the 21st century. Far away from the piss and vinegar of Scrubbers (1982) and Prisoner Cell Block H (1979-86), Dunye’s film makes a potent case for how race and class have created a new caste system behind bars.
In 2002, when Lisa Gornick’s debut feature premiered at the BFI London Lesbian & Gay Film Festival (now BFI Flare), it was a significant moment because the film was the first British lesbian feature in 10 years. As such, the film and director attracted considerable attention both at home and abroad. Gornick wrote, directed and starred in this breezy, urbane comedy, which she described as “a thesis on love and its labels”.
The life and loves of 30-something Marina are explored as she searches for answers to the big questions in her life. Made 2 years before the internationally successful TV series The L Word (2004-09), Do I Love You? deftly captures the zeitgeist with its investigation of lesbian identity and sexual mores in the 21st century. It’s like a lesbian Annie Hall (1977) or Frances Ha (2012), with Gornick (who recently starred in The Owls) cornering the market as the thinking woman’s favourite dyke.
Lesbian cinema finally hits the big ‘O’ time with Lisa Cholodenko’s (High Art, 1998) family-friendly comedy The Kids Are All Right ratcheting up four Oscar nominations in 2011, including best picture. Annette Bening and Julianne Moore tear up the straights-can’t-play-gay rulebook as long-term married couple Nic and Jules, who hit midlife parenting and partnership problems.
The mainstream press went nuts, joyful that they had a homosexual film they could write about without unsettling their more conservative readers – though Cholodenko suffered a backlash from some queer corners for her inclusion of hetero sex (with beefcake Mark Ruffalo), and for her film’s apparent advocacy of traditional family values.
The French term for tomboy is ‘garçon manqué’, which translates literally as ‘failed boy’. “I don’t need to comment, you can see how bad it is”, said writer/director Céline Sciamma (Water Lilies, 2007) on the phrase, preferring to give this honest little film about gender confusion an English title.
Laure/Mikael is 10 years old, her/his family has moved to a new town and we follow her/his adventures over one summer as s/he negotiates the early complexities of selfhood: playing a game of football, finding s/he is attracting the attention of local girls and facing the ultimate test of wearing a bathing suit. In France, the film was received as a family film and went on to be shown in primary and secondary schools as part of classes about cinema.
The second British lesbian film to be included on the list, Break My Fall is the story of the painful end of a one-time loving relationship. A previous BAFTA nominee for best short with 1999’s Travelling Light, writer/director Kanchi Wichmann made this feature debut shooting on 16mm on the streets of east London. (Campbell X’s East End-set Stud Life, made a few years later, is also worth a peek)
Influenced by the formalism of early Chantal Akerman films such Je tu il elle (1975), it boasts music from local bands (Wet Dog, Peggy Sue) and the kind of realistic characterisation of people and city that can be found in Bette Gordon’s cinema (eg Variety, 1983). Released in 2012, Break My Fall (together with Weekend and others) was identified as part of a new wave of queer cinema, charting queer experience in all its complexities.
A free trial, then just £4.99/month or £49/year.

From biopics and tragic white period pieces to coming-of-age stories, erotic thrillers, and romantic comedies, these are the movies about queer women that actually move us.
Only four movies on the list were directed by men, and at least a dozen were directed by queer women, proving that when it comes to telling stories about queer women, no one does it better than us. Three queer directors, Alice Wu, Angela Robinson, and Dee Rees, each have two films in the top twenty.
Here are Out Magazine's picks for the twenty best movies about lesbians and queer women.
Queer filmmaker Aurora Guerroro brings us this understated and gorgeous film that tells a story we don't often get to see- that of queer Latinas. Following two teen girls as they fall in love, and featuring great performances by both actors, this movie is perfect for a summer afternoon.
Based on the real-life friendship between the film's two writers, Life Partners is a great example of a lesbian film that's not about a lesbian relationship. We need more lighthearted movies about queer friends like this.
Jessie Pinneck is great and gorgeous as a queer teen who spends her summer in Chicago. This movie has super cute flirting and gender stuff, and the relationship between Cyd and the aunt that she's living with is great. One thing I love about this movie is how being gay doesn't cause any problems, it's just a queer girl trying things out.
This was the first lesbian romcom I ever saw and it will always hold a special place in my heart. Piper Perabo and Lena Headey are adorable as a couple of women who fall in love after one of them gets married. If you haven't seen this one already, get on it now.
This is a hilarious teen sex comedy about a group of parents who try and stop their daughters from completing a sex pact on their prom night. Gideon Adlon plays Sam, one of the three girls who is gay, and her relationship with Angelica, a cape and face glitter wearing girl in her class played by Ramona Young is one of the most realistic depictions of the awkwardness of teen lesbianism there is.
Todd Hayne's gorgeous film was nominated for six Oscars and gave a whole generation of queer women Mommy Issues. Cate Blanchett and Roony Mara give unforgettable performances and Blanchett's faces will stick in your memory for years.
Park Chan-Wook directed this stunning adaption of Fingersmith where the new handmaiden of a Korean noblewoman plots with the woman she's serving to run away after they fall in love. Few films ever are as gorgeously shot. The Handmaiden is one of the best international films in recent years.
Desiree Akhavan's debut movie owes a lot to Girls, but creates it own legacy as a new type of movie about bisexual women. Being one herself, writer/director/star Akhavan brings a sense of realness and humor to the subject that's usually missing from movies about bisexual women.
One of the best high school comedies in recent years features Kaitlyn Dever as a lesbian high school senior, but the movie's not about her coming out or struggling with her sexuality, it's about her trying to have a great last night of high school. Queer actress Beanie Feldstein also stars in a Golden Globe nominated role.
Angela Robinson brings plenty of camp to this perfect date movie about a secret academy of teen girl spies. It's got action, it's got heists, it's got lesbians in schoolgirl uniforms, what esle could you ask for? This movie reminds us all how fun a movie about queer women can be.
Alice Wu’s followup to Saving Face, which we’ll see later on the list, is a queer high school retelling of Cyrano de Bergerac and is one of the best movies of 2020. All the lead actors give great performances and Wu’s terrific script, which was nominated for an Independent Spirit Award, lifts the movie up to heights rarely reached by this kind of movie.
The earliest movie on the list, this German film from 1931 is one of the first depictions of a lesbian romance on screen. While the story, about a student falling in love with her teacher at an all-girls school, might not stand up, this is a classic of queer cinema and a movie you shouldn't miss.
The first of two Dee Rees movies in our top ten, Bessie is a biopic of legendary bisexual blues singer Bessie Smith. This movie features one of Queen Latifah's all-time best performances in the title role and features Mo'Nique as Ma Rainey. If you love queer history, this is the movie for you.
Another film by Angela Robinson, who made D.E.B.S., this movie tells the true-life story of the creator of Wonder Woman and the two women he was in a polyamorous relationship with. Rebecca Hall and Bella Heathcote give beautiful performances as two women in love with each other and the same man. This is a great history of not only queer relationships, but the women who inspired the creation of one of the greatest superheroes of all time.
Before they made The Matrix, the Wachowskis made Bound, an erotic thriller starring Jennifer Tilly and Gina Gershon as two women who fall in love and try to doublecross the mob. This movie is pure lesbian gaze as our two leads flirt, make love, and come out on top. There's no way anyone other than two lesbians could have made this movie.
The definitive and best White Lesbian Tragic Period Romance is of course, directed by and starring queer women. Céline Sciamma wrote and directed the movie about a painter falling in love with a woman she's supposed to paint a portrait of. If you like longing, firtive glances, and slow burning romance, this is the perfect movie for you.
Cheryl Dunye's love letter to Black lesbians is also a hilarious mockumentary. Dunye plays a version of herself, a Black lesbian working at a Philadelphia movie store, who wants to find the identity of an early Black actress credited simply as "The Watermelon Woman." Dunye films the lesbian community the way only a lesbian could. It's beautiful, it's loving, it's funny, and it's incisive. This is a perfect film.
Lesbian director Jamie Babbit brought us this campy classic about teens in conversion therapy. What could be a horrifying premise (and often is in these kinds of movies) instead turns into a hilarious and hijinks-filled love story. This movie also introduced queer women everywhere to Clea DuVall and solidified her as an all-time lesbian icon. This movie is an indelible part of the queer movie canon.
Alice Wu is back again, this time with her romantic comedy about a Chinese-American surgeon navigating love and coming out to her traditional mother and community. This movie is sweet, sexy, and funny and features one of my favorite couples in any lesbian movie. Plus, it's a rare movie where two queer women of color actually end up together. I love everything about this movie.
There are few filmmakers like Dee Rees, and when it comes to movies about queer women, she is unparalled. Adepero Oduye is brillaint as a 17 year old Black lesbian embracing her identity and trying to start her life. While parts of the semi-autobiographical film are hard to watch, all of it is worth it. There are few films as powerful, triumphant, and beautiful as this one. Dee Rees is a powerhouse, and Pariah is her queer masterpiece, so far.
