    Editorial Reviews

    Lisa Cholodenko wrote and directed this lesbian-themed drama, winner of the 1998 Sundance Film Festival's Waldo Salt Screenwriting Award. Ambitious photography magazine associate editor Syd (Radha Mitchell) has a ho-hum relationship with James (Gabriel Mann). Investigating a ceiling leak, she enters the apartment of her neighbor, retired photographer Lucy Berliner (Ally Sheedy), who lives with former Fassbinder actress Greta (Patricia Clarkson), a heroin addict. The friendship between the worldly Lucy and the naive, insecure Syd ripens into an affair, one destined to change the lives of both women. Bhob Stewart, All Movie Guide

    May 02, 2006: This is just an excellent flick with some superb acting. In addition to the two female leads, the characters of the magazine editor and her toady deputy are very finely wrought. The portrayal of New York's artsy-druggy demimonde is just so on target. I thought the character of the younger woman's boyfriend was not fleshed out or believable, but that is my only criticism, and a minor one at that. A brilliant film.
