Below Her Mouth (2016 DVD Region 2) Erika Linder, Natalie Krill, Sebastian Pigott - Uncut Version

Having only trusted Europe with lesbian cinema, mostly France, I was sceptical that this would deliver, since it is a Canadian movie, and for me, Canada doesn't have a great track record with this kind of thing, just like the U.S., but I did look at it on dvd first and I am glad to say, I was pleasantly surprised. The content is very frank and the movie moves along nicely. It is also very sexy and I like the ending a lot too.Personally, I believe that when it comes to lesbian cinema, the Americans are not great, (something that I find is a real pity, because in terms of cinema itself, they are world beaters), because of their attitudes to sexuality onscreen and because of their puritanical point of view. Their sex scenes in these films is far too conservative and controlled, can't do that, can't show this, can't do that angle, and that is simply no good for any kind of movie like this, because it is not natural and isn't allowed to flow. There are some films that deal with the subject quite well, but I find them to be unsatisfying also, maybe a negative ending. I don't believe that Canadians are a lot different, but they have proved with this offering that they can do a lesbian movie just as well as anyone and it is not affected by any kind of puritanical thinking. It flows nicely, the characters are really engaging and the love scenes are allowed to flow freely and naturally and it is beautifully done. I find it is also very sexy. The movie is not that long, basic feature running time really at about 90 mins, but that's all it needs.The whole crew of this movie were women and maybe that shows in the liberal way it is made, but it is sensitive to both men and women, since the male characters in it are treated very fairly. It is simply a decent, strong drama about two women who realise they are right for each other. So, from that point of view alone, I congratulate Canada.

I've been trying to get this one since I saw the American reviews but the complIcations of importing from USA and the hurdles presented here by HMRC left me out of pocket and without the movie! Well, I'm very pleased to have got it now!(I know, I should have waited till it turned up on Amazon UK, but patience has never been my virtue! But happy now!)

viewed through the females gaze , this film manages to be sensual and moving without being overly sentimental , well directed by up and coming april mullen , a must see for any lesbian out there.

Watched this on Netflix first and watched a couple times afterwards as previous comments done well

As expected.

Quite good but have to use imagination

Well crafted film with good clean photography. The Subject was delt with in a sympathetic and original way avoiding cliches and revealing a tender love story.

Well what can I say... it's Erica Linder!
