西兰公国简介
Made for only $350,000 in 1985 when no one wanted to fund or star in a movie about lesbians, Desert Hearts is widely considered the first full-length lesbian love story, and its success paved the way for the proliferation of lesbian films we enjoy today. Directed by Donna Deitch and set in 1950's Reno, Nevada, Desert Hearts tells the story of a 35-year-old uptight female professor Vivian (Helen Shaver) who comes to town to file for divorce and ends up falling in love with a free-spirited 25-year-old casino worker Cay (Patricia Charbonneau). Although Vivian left her husband because she had "drowned in still waters," she is not quite prepared for the tidal wave-effect Cay has on her life. As Vivian herself admits, her life is all about "order," and her image of herself as a scholar and a professional, upstanding woman does not include a relationship with a woman. Cay, meanwhile, is living at home with her stepmother, Frances (Audra Lindley) while she waits to meet someone who "counts"--and she almost immediately recognizes that Vivian is that someone. Both women struggle with conflicting desires and a sense of obligation to others, and are ultimately drawn together not just because of their attraction to each other, but because each woman offers the other something she has been unable to find on her own.。艾格妮丝的丈夫死了，留下七个未成年的孩子，以及筹办葬礼所带来的大笔债务。幸亏她天性乐观坚强，再加上好友玛丽安的帮助与扶持，总算在艰困中逐渐站稳脚步。在几位热心的街坊邻居的撮合下，艾格妮丝更与面包师傅皮耶，有了进一步发展的可能性。想不到此时却传出玛丽安罹患了不治之症，只剩下半年不到的寿命……。
