PQ Video Hot List

Older and Wiser

	I Am My Own Woman
	Feeling he was born a woman in a man's body, Lothar Berfelde transformed himself into Charlotte von Mahlsdorf, living his life as a woman and earning renown as a museum curator in East Berlin. One of director Rosa von Praunheim's most brilliant works.

	If These Walls Could Talk 2
	$14.95 $14.95 Vanessa Redgrave won an Emmy for her portrayal of a lesbian who faces the perils of the closet when her longtime partner (Marian Seldes) passes away and no one recognizes her as a true widow.

	Living With Pride: Ruth Ellis @ 100
	Being acknowledged as the oldest out African American lesbian only touches the surface of this pioneer's incredible life. Regrettably, Ruth passed away this fall, but Yvonne Welbon's documentary remains a loving portrait of a truly inspirational individual.

	Love and Death on Long Island
	Taking its cue from "Death in Venice," this more amusing crowd-pleaser finds writer Ian McKellen inexorably crushed out on a sweet young thing of an actor (Jason Priestly).

	Nitrate Kisses
	Barbara Hammer creates a collection of shared queer history in typically effective non-linear style, while rightfully acknowledging (and depicting) the existence of sexually active older lesbians.

	Salut Victor!
	Two older gay gentlemen with divergent life experiences meet at a home for the elderly and develop an unexpected and intimate friendship. Like the character of Victor, this film is an honest charmer.

	Silent Pioneers
	These pioneers are silent no longer, as filmmaker Lucy Winer gives older several gays and lesbians the chance to share their stories. Yes, there is life after fifty.
