Playboy Celebrity Centerfold: Jessica Hahn (1993)

Summit Station, the longest running lesbian bar in Ohio, was one of the places that made lesbian community possible.

When the retelling of the Cinderella fairy tale and a holiday spirit come together, viewers learn about class issues as well as perseverance despite setbacks.

When Eddie Palmer is released from prison he returns home and he meets Sam, soon becoming his primary caregiver.

This film is a splendid mix of mediums, but its strength lies in its simplicity and beautiful message of closeness.

Despite its glaring flaws, First Girl I Loved is not entirely undeserving of a watch. For people who can handle the more difficult aspects of the story and graphic scenes, it is worth looking into. It’s not a film worthy of rewatch, but it may still resonate somewhat with those who need a story like this. It is a genuine, if flimsy attempt at a coming-of-age tale. Were the film to be directed by someone with experiences more similar to Anne, it would likely be more powerful--as it is, it feels like a man’s perspective of what it means to come to terms with your identity as a lesbian. 

'The Suicide Squad' is at its best when it focuses on its characters and commentary on real-life issues, but stumbles when it relies too heavily on gratuitous gore and insensitive humor.
