I love this movie. It was one of the first queer movies I'd ever seen. I'd kill for a bluray release. No bury your gays. Happy ending. Great coming of age movie. Careful women, watching this might make you realize you're not as straight as you thought.

jon c

two girls from different worlds meet and start to fall for one another the rough dangers they face come with their forbidden passion the film starts to get very serious by the end mark which had my heart racing mind you that this is more of a slow-moving story but that is the point when getting to know both of these characters you know what kind of story this is but never seen with such emotion and realism

We open with Laurel Holloman as "Randy" making out with an older married woman in a gas station bathroom. This, by the way, is the most interesting thing that will happen in this entire movie. Let that settle in

Daily Telegraph (UK)

The clunking title of The Incredibly True Adventure of Two Girls in Love tells you all you need to know about the plot, though there is a genuine sweetness to this perky tale of high school romance.
