Movie Reviews of A Family Affair

Movie Review: Worthwhile filmaking
Summary: 5 Stars

Hey, Just got over reading the reviews to this movie...Wow, people either loved it or well did not care for it...But one thing I noticed common in all the reviews was passion...this movie really evoked emotion, which I think makes any movie a success, as I am tried of shallow flicks with no plot or talent.

I saw this movie about 2 years ago in a film festival, it won the audience award which I think is a great compliment..Now do not get me wrong this is a lower budget flick, rough around the edges, it isn't a film with a lot of financial backing like Kissing Jessica Stein or High Art...But the story is so good and the writing even better you forget the budget...These are some talented filmakers more so because they made a film for less and made it feel like more...

I liked the actresses, and there are some priceless scenes such as the ex, the current gf, and the main character who is torn between the two...no movie has shown a love triangle any better represented than in this one scene no matter high the budget ( and that is an honest view) and there other priceless gems, inlaws, love scenes etc... This really will grow on you and become a favorite DVD in your library..

First time filmakers with an effort beyond their experience who capture the lesbian experience with humor, drama , and sex appeal...

I recommend this film highly, I think it is a great addition to gay cinema and a turning point to tell filmakers give us a quality story and you will have an audience..

Hope to see another film this good soon...(read something about a new Erotic drama coming out this spring in an article about lesbian cinema in Curve Mag...director of A Family Affair wrote it and is just directing, not acting this time, and somewhat HEAVY erotic content....hmmm think that should be a winner :) called escapable? or inescapable?...look it up do not know more than that

anyway see A Family Affair I give it 5 stars..

Summary of A Family Affair

The course of true love doesn?t always run straight. Died-in-the-wool New Yorker Rachel (Helen Lesnick) moves to San Diego looking for a new life and a new romance. That?s where her supportive PFLAG parents live. Rachel is surprised to find how they?ve adapted to the laid back California scene, and totally shocked when her mom (Arlene Golonka) wants to set her up on a blind date. At first, Rachel refuses, but eventually Rachel lets her mother introduce her to Christine (Erica Shaffer). Soon, Rachel finds herself in a real romance, but just when the two women begin to plan their wedding, Rachel?s old flame Reggie (Michele Green) makes a comeback attempt . . .
