Marina Ashioti Little White Lies This is a confident debut, clearly extensively researched, put together with great care and makes for a welcome addition to the canon of queer period dramas. Aug 29, 2024 Full Review Frank J. Avella The Contending Lilies look is reminiscent the cinema of Merchant Ivory, especially Maurice, but Seefried’s tonal and genre shifts are jarring leaving the viewer feeling as traumatized as the onscreen characters—but, perhaps, that’s exactly the point. Rated: B Dec 19, 2024 Full Review Jack Walters Loud and Clear Reviews Lilies Not For Me is a gut-wrenching drama that revisits a neglected, dark period in queer history through the hazy lens of a complex love triangle. Rated: 4/5 Sep 26, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
