It was important to us that we not take into account any metric voted on by institutions composed mostly of cis straight white men. This list was created through a rigorous multi-step process that involved a lot of lesbian movie watching, a lot of voting, and a lot of weighing factors often ignored on mainstream film lists. There are films that are simply fun for a casual night in, there are deeply thought-provoking films, and there are films that are mostly just here to turn you on. The goal with this list was to create a canon of lesbian+ movies that honor all the different types of work worthy of viewing. The past half a decade has brought new films worthy of excitable gay celebration - and older works that have been rediscovered. That’s why five years after releasing our original “100 Best Bisexual, Queer and Lesbian Movies” list we decided to double it. We want you all to see our lives on screen through the best lesbian movies with the variety and quality we deserve. Here at Autostraddle we want every lesbian, every queer woman, and every non-binary person to know that movies should include us and do include us.
