Customer Reviews

Lesbian Content was Good, but the Rest Was Even Better!!
I'll be the first to admit that I was unsure if I would be able to sit still long enough to watch this entire movie, but once I got into it, I couldn't turn it off. I thoroughly enjoyed all of the stories and could relate to each of them.

My girlfriend and I watched it at the urging of another of our friends. She liked the whole thing, but recommended the first story, which deals with a new lesbian relationship. Movies about lesbians are traditionally pretty cheesey, so if we stumble onto something good, we tell all of our friends in about 2 seconds. That's what got us to watch it in the first place.

Turns out that that first story WAS very well done, and accurately portrayed the insecurity many of us feel in our first lesbian relationships, but the rest of the movie was good enough to almost overshadow the tasteful and sexy scenes between Kate Capshaw and Elle McPherson. Because I have sisters, I totally related to the second story. Because I have been cheated on, I liked and understood the third story and it's ending. The fourth story was just a shocker and had such a "hoo-rah" ending that I liked it, despite the improbability of it actually happening.

This is good stuff. If someone recommends it for the lesbian sex alone, watch further, because the whole thing was compelling and relatable. It's "If These Walls - I & II" with a twist.

Five stars!
P.s. I am searching for the artist who sang the "lonely painter" song during the first story. (...)

Steve Spielberg is so lucky!
Oh my gosh. The first of the four stories is incredibly hot. Elle MacPherson and Kate Capshaw (Steven Spielberg's wife) have incredible chemistry. Worth the money just for their love scene.

And Camryn Manheim in the final story is remarkable. She is so talented in this movie.

Good yet moving stories, not for the narrow minded!!
I have watched this film several times since purchasing..As suggested in several reviews Elle Macpherson doesn't look comfortable playing a 'gay' role but saying that she does look good with Kate Capshaw - very seductive and HOT!!! At least some of the HOT scenes are realistic....
The other 3 stories are good too, I especially liked the last story, which was funny & witty. The whole DVD features an all star cast whose lives evolve around their Psychiatrist played by Stockard Channing.
I would definately recommend watching this DVD, it kinda compares to If walls could talk which was split into 4 different stories but its focus was on 'lesbian' stories.
