Friends And Family Christmas: Hallmark's First Lesbian Romance Movie
Manage episode 390995909 series 2391664
The Legendary Ladies are back for some holiday fun! This year, Amy and Kat review the Hallmark film "Friends and Family Christmas", a big deal for members of the queer community hoping to see themselves represented in the mainstream "Hallmark" market. And it is important - so important. But here's the thing....they don't have much else positive to say about the film...and that's where the real discussion begins. Where was the honesty in the film? Was there a lack of care in the filmmaking? And are we, as storytellers ourselves, more inclined to be critical...and does that diminish a film that finally celebrates queer representation as normality in the holidays? It's a surprisingly deep episode from the hosts.
We'd love to hear from our listeners! Do you agree with our assessment of the film? Email us thelegendaryladies@gmail.com!
