The Feels

This was OK, but not really my jam. It's not a rom com, but rather a movie about relationships, and being honest, and working through problems. It's about a lesbian couple who are engaged, and are throwing a dual-bachlorette party in a fancy house. Their various friends and family members come for the party. One member of the couple admits, while on drugs, that she's never had an orgasm, but has been faking it all along.

I liked some of the supporting characters better than the main characters. There is a qualified happy ending, and no violence. Does discuss, in an indirect way, childhood sexual abuse. Content note for drugs and alcohol.

Duck Butter.

This was just bad, and bizarre, though I was intially lured in by the fact that there is a lesbian couple on screen who actually have chemistry, and who have realistic-looking sex. My friend and I did not watch the whole thing-- we fast-forwarded thru most of the 2nd half.

The premise is that the two women meet and decide to spend a full 24 hours together, having lots of sex and getting to know each other. The main problem is, one of the women is a horrible person-- the kind of manipulative person that I would run away from at speed. And while they have chemistry, the two women don't actually seem to like each other all that much.

So does the movie end with them breaking up?

We fast-forward to watch the last couple of minutes, and it did look like they went their separate ways. Nima, the main character, took the dog that the other woman, Sergio, had been fostering. So that's a qualified happy ending, I suppose!

Happy ending for the dog, at least!
