WATCH: Lesbian-Themed French Film 'Bye Bye Blondie' Opens the Boston LGBT Film Festival
The Boston LGBT Film Festival opens tonight with Virginie Despentes’ new lesbian film, Bye Bye Blondie. Despentes’ debut film, Rape Me, was nominated for the Golden Leopard award at the Locarno Film Festival, but the acclaimed director has followed that film with a much lighter story of two women on a quest to rekindle their romance from decades past. Actresses Emmanuelle Béart and Béatrice Dalle play the aging but gorgeous Frances and Gloria, respectively, who reunite when Frances’ gay husband and work life leave her feeling less than satisfied.
