All About E

Having seen the hype for this film on many lesbian blogs, I was eager to see what All About E had to offer the 2015' queer cinema lineup. I was pleasantly surprised! As I read on 'Afterellen,' "it's the road movie you never knew you wanted!".

All About E avoids the tragic clichés of lesbians depicted on screen that we see time and time again. It joins the new wave of independent and mainstream cinema giving gay women what we want to see on screen, but manages to do so with half the budget of partner films.

The directorial debut of Louis Wadley, All About E, appeals to a wide audience, with a plot that ticks over nicely, believable performances, cinematography that uniquely frames the Australian outback, some drama and laughs and a refreshingly realistic love scene.

It's an independent Aussie film that carves out a nice little niche for itself.. All About E sets out to set our hearts aflutter and asks you to come along for the ride.

All about E does many things that other movies don't... It makes you laugh. It has sumptuously gorgeous cinematography making the most of the beautifully rich and authentic Australian country setting. The characters have some depth to them and represent multi-racial Australia. The script is great keeping the movie rolling along at a thunderous pace. The performances make you connect with the characters and draw you into the story. There is one of the best sex scenes ever. This movie really shows a glimpse of our lesbian lives. Don't miss it. I saw this movie twice and the audience loved it on both occasions with rounds of heartfelt applause. Both times I saw it was in very mixed cinema audiences - it appeals equally to gay and straight viewers.

I really enjoyed All About E. This is the first lesbian feature film / lesbian thriller that I have seen that has included so many unique elements. We never get to see lesbians in roles like this, the plot is tight and fast, the story is set in rural Australia, themes such as homophobia and racism are set side by side. The film is full of surprises. I loved Mandala Rose as E - she was simply magnetic. I also thought that the sex scene was one of the best that I have even seen. The story line and thematic progression in the film was really well developed. The main character not only gets the girl in the end but learns some great life lessons. I have seen All About E twice and each time the audience has been thrilled with the film. It clearly appeals to gay and straight audiences and to a mix of ages and backgrounds. Well done - a new Australian director and producer and a brilliant product. Its a "must see"!

I just loved it, have seen it twice, and would happily see it again. Thought it was funny and I always love good humour, I thought the views of Australia were brilliant, the contrasting scenes, city and country I thought were innovative. The love scenes were very good, enough to be scintillating without being tacky. I suppose no movie is going to please everyone, but myself and the people I know all enjoyed it. The dog was a lovely touch, especially grabbing the dog in the last scene. Personally I would not have thrown out the money, but many of the group I watched with said they would. E was naughty and nice, which I think reflected most people, I would like to think I have a bit of both, so easy to identify with.

This movie has everything, the breakup, the parents who try to understand, the gay best friend, the pet dog and a plane. It's a bit slow sometimes, where the writer director fell in love with the scene but give her a break. It's her first script and first movie. There are gangsters planes and dogs, everything you ever wanted in a lesbian movie (if you are a lesbian). There is no porn. This also iconic as an Australian movie with Sydney Kings Cross organised crime district, Wollongong and the bush. The actors have done a great job on the script, which itself has had readings at festivals because it is so good. Australian lesbian culture is like all lesbian cultures and is unique because it is Australian. A rollicking insider's view of a lesbian adventure. It was crowd-funded and we all hope you like this this small love story. And yes, E is a bit of a brat.......
