LGBTQ* Films History You Should Know
Can you name the first pro-lesbian film? Can you name the year?
Mädchen in Uniform (Girls in Uniform) released in Germany in 1931 was the first feature-length film to portray a pro-lesbian storyline and relationship. The film is based on the novel (and play) Gestern und heute by Christa Winsloe.
First Photo:The story follow adoring Manuela, played by Hertha Thiele (right) who falls for her teacher Fräuline von Bernburg, played by Dorothea Weick (left). (1931 film)
Second/Third Photo: Remake (1951) of film. Fräuline von Bernburg is played by Lilli Palmer.
(Note: Loving Annabelle (2006) has been compared to these films. The largest similarity is the teacher/student relationship.)
The Kids Are All Right
- Movie
- Queer focused
- English
- Rating: Netflix (Honestly I really didn’t care for this film. I know it was nominated for several awards and all that but I think it is over rated. I think the star power behind it gave it more of a visibility boost than it deserved. I didn’t like it for SO many reasons. The main reason being the storyline. It was well acted, but that was about it).

Treading Water
- Movie
- Totally queer focused
- English
- Rating: Skip (unless you are just trying to up the number of queer films you have seen. It is very very low budget, which if you are a fan of the lesbian genre you are probably used to by now. But this movie is of low quality even for a lgbtq independent film. The acting isn’t the best and the story is not all that engaging).

D.E.B.S. (short film)
Here is the original D.E.B.S. short film
What’s Cooking
- Movie
- Only two of the characters are gay. It’s one of those movies where you jump around looking at each family individually and the trials and tribulations they go through. One family has lesbian characters the rest do not. So WARNING not a totally queer film!
- English
- Rating: Buy (I really like this film. It is indie but not too low budget. The all-star cast is excellent. Seeing Julianna Margulies and Kyra Sedgwick all couply is enough in itself to buy the film, but the other segments of the movie are good as well. Definitely reminds you of all the awkwardness of coming home around the holidays. Good film, go watch it).
