She Must Be Seeing Things
Director - Sheila McLaughlin Institutional DVD Price: $195 |
|
| A love affair between a lawyer and a filmmaker is tested when the lawyer, after reading the filmmaker’s diary, disguises herself as a man and jealously shadows her lover. The dynamics of sex and sexuality, career and commitment, fidelity and companionship are keenly explored.
Digitally-restored and available for the first time on DVD, She Must Be Seeing Things is revelatory for its representation of a new lesbian desire, a politicized eroticism that mirrored the burgeoning butch/femme scene at the time. The film was attacked by anti-porn feminists as it arrived at the height of the feminist 'Sex Wars'. McLaughlin, together with Lizzie Borden and Bette Gordon, formed part of a small school of New York independent filmmakers that explored issues of gender and sexuality that had not until that time been addressed by Third-Wave Feminism, paving the way for future queer representations.
