The End of Sex (2022) 59% “"There’s much in the film that might resonate with married adults and parents."” – Film Threat Jun 18, 2023 Full Review Coming Soon (1999) 38% “It's refreshing to see a film put the female orgasm front-and-center, especially in a genre where it’s usually depicted comically or absent entirely. ” – Ms. Magazine Feb 23, 2023 Full Review The Incredibly True Adventure of Two Girls in Love (1995) 80% ““The Incredibly True Adventures of Two Girls in Love” depicts consent between the two girls as exploratory and mutual, offering a positive depiction of female sexual discovery. ” – Ms. Magazine Feb 23, 2023 Full Review Just Another Girl on the I.R.T. (1992) 69% “"Just Another Girl on the IRT," directed by Leslie Harris, won the Special Jury Prize at Sundance for its depiction of Black teen Chantel Mitchell who navigates the pressures of sex, parental expectations, friendship and eventually teen motherhood. ” – Ms. Magazine Feb 23, 2023 Full Review Dirty Dancing (1987) 72% ““Dirty Dancing” is one of the only films from this era that depicts a girl’s embracing her sexual desire and agency—without regret. ” – Ms. Magazine Feb 23, 2023 Full Review Just One of the Guys (1985) 57% “This film offers potential to address head-on the considerable differences between transgender identities and Terry’s gender disguise.” – Ms. Magazine Feb 22, 2023 Full Review Unpregnant (2020) 92% “"Unpregnant" breaks new ground by bringing the subject of abortion to the foreground of a teen-centered PG-13 comedy. Of course, abortion itself is not the laughing matter; rather, it’s the absurdity of the journey the girls must make to obtain one. ” – Ms. Magazine Feb 22, 2023 Full Review Women Talking (2022) 90% “"Women Talking" never depicts acts of sexual assault. What it does is more haunting. For an audience desensitized to violence, "Women Talking" evokes the question: Why would anyone stay in a society that systematically perpetuates violence against them? ” – Ms. Magazine Feb 16, 2023 Full Review Promising Young Woman (2020) 90% “Promising Young Woman shows how an egregious assault is not so dissimilar from the ubiquitous less explicit assaults comprising what we often label 'seduction.'” – Ms. Magazine Aug 30, 2021 Full Review
