Everything Relative

Id heard this movie was like a gay big chill. I can understand the comparison but to me it wasn't. Yes, it's about a group of women who have gotten back together after a long time to reunite for one who's had a baby and the little mans getting circumcised whereas in the big chill it was for a wake of a friend. Both films were about college friends and in both films someone has died and one particular character is having a hard time getting over them. There is music and there was music in the big chill. They break into dance from time to time just like in the Big Chill. BUT the music isn't great like it was in the big chill and the acting leaves something to be desired. The movie proves a lot of good points. In all i really liked the film. Is it my favorite? No. Do I love it in comparison to the Big Chill? No. I'm happy to have it in my lgbt film collection though. I bet it will be better the second time around. I wasn't a big fan of the character Maria. She was a woman in the mid thirties yet she still had the emotional and mental state (the scene where one of the women is trying to get her to admit she was in love and he had the side pony tail and she was swishing around making pouty noises I kinda wanted to barf. She's kind of a flake) of a fifteen year old to me. Other than her I found the characters rich and relatable. Not to me (different generation and particularly less campy) but to people Ive known in my life.

This is one of the first lesbian films i ever watched and i love it still today.

This is one of the best Lesbian movies I have seen..it is quirky, funny, serious, erotic and just plain fun. There are very few "good" movies out there and this still is one of the best!!

Enjoyable film. It's kinda like a Lesbian Big Chill in a Little Chill way. You know these people. A nice night out with the girls at home movie.

good movie and item

Films targeted for lesbian audiences are seldom able to meet more mainstream standards, but Everything Relative is a well-written, provocative story of seven women coming together for a weekend to celebrate the birth of a child. One can't put this much chemistry together in one place, though, and not expect some amazing things to happen.Friends in college, all have a shared history, at least in part, much of which is unresolved. An old relationship must be confronted when Josie and Maria become painfully aware of a conversation they should have had many years ago, and they must now find a way to put misunderstandings to rest. We watch as they struggle with a past neither of them could control, and question what the future might hold if they could somehow reach out to each other.Victoria and Katie, mothers of the child bringing the group together, deal with relationship issues brought on by external pressures including a child, financial inequality, and career vs. family pride. When Victoria drops her lover's hand as a colleague approaches them in public, a debate begins within the group that covers very real issues facing all lesbians in today's society. How much is our pride worth, and how much power is actually lost by letting the Far Right draw their own conclusions?All will be intrigued by Luce (who just happens to be the lead dance / acrobatics choreographer on the latest Cher tour), the sexual dynamo with rock-hard abs and a sexy voice to boot, who must come to terms with herself and her past, and with the ghost she harbors in both places. Luce is partly what we all want in a lover and partly what we all want to be-serious yet wild, desired yet strong, beautiful yet vulnerable. But if Luce is ever to break the endless stream of casual affairs she seems both able to start and end with a fair amount of apathy she must let go of Sonja, the perfect lover, who died many years ago, and who keeps Luce's heart from taking chances and losing the game.Gena could be the one to bring Luce back among the living. With her sarcastic wit and movie-star looks, she is the songstress who sings life back into the hallowed place reserved for Sonja, and brings a less serious pace to the film. She looks like fluff but, in the end, it is Gena who reveals more of life's truths than we deemed her capable."Everything Relative" features outstanding performances by the entire cast, and addresses many lesbian issues while providing great storylines and interesting characters. Those looking for racy love scenes will not be disappointed, as the film is not to be outdone in this area either. This group can heat up a Northampton night better than most, without compromising the integrity of the film or our expectations of the characters. They play, laugh, and love the way we would if we were them, and in a way that truly depicts many lesbian lifestyles.

Those who wrote rave reviews for this movie are spot on. It's a lesbiangem designed for everyone. It's a classic story of old friends reuniting,only this time with an incredibly provocative lesbian/queer storyline. Itcovers a lot of important, serious topics, but it does so with incrediblefinesse and with some fabulous entertainment. I mean, come on -- a reunionof a bunch of college friends? Especially queer friends? Sound familiar?Then join the party.....and the drama!Victoria and Katie are having a baby, and their four closest friendsreturn to their old 'hood (and even their old house!) to join in thecelebration. None of them are prepared for what surfaces -- sexualtension/relationship ghosts of the past, political debate (the politics ofbeing out, being queer), relationship dynamics (class differences, raisingchildren), the way everyone has changed (and hasn't), and dealing with itall in front of their old close friends. We've all been there, to somedegree, so we can all relate. Each character brings their own dynamic--from Luce, the heartbreaking party-animal, to the gorgeous, sassy Gena,to the duo (Josie and Maria) who finally deal with their old drama. Ifyou've ever had a close-knit group of friends, all with uniquepersonalities, then you will love this movie. It's that simple.Everything Relative is one of those movies for any mood. It'sentertaining, yet serious. It's very queer, yet really pertains to anygroup of old friends. The cast is great, the characters dynamic andappealing, and the storyline believable. It's good.
