All About E

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.

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.

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.

I happened to catch this film at San Francisco's Frameline Film Festival last summer. I realize it is a lesbian written and produced work, but it does not need any sexually parochial designation to make it a worthwhile film. Rather, it is a fast-paced, compelling, engrossing, thrill ride of a movie, a ripping good yarn, which includes gay main characters in its fine tuned ensemble cast. The cinematography was languorous and luscious, somehow conveying an almost palpable sense of dust and heat and grit of rural Australia. I know I am a Yank, and this is an Aussie film; but why haven't encountered these brilliant actors before? I was particularly impressed by Brett Rogers' performance as E's fubsy best friend. It was subtle, complex, nuanced, and poignant, and was well matched by Mandahla Rose and Julia Billington as the lesbian protagonists. Even the dog was brilliant. For me, it was a "must see" film, so much so that I had to go see it again when it turned up in the Palm Springs Cinema Diverse. If you get a chance to catch this film, don't miss it.
