Great to read your words.ArcticMonkeys wrote:...A Happy Ending in a Lesbian film, which was pretty rare back then...
Certainly a big step forward from the days when any gay person in film had to "die" before the film ended.
As for the fashions, etc, of the 90's, we can just about start enjoying them now as a nostalgia trip.

It's a very nostalgic film, at least to me who was a teenager at that time, but that
doesn't necessary mean it's outdated, or aged badly.
Fashion and music obviously change over the years, but great films who depicts it's time, are imo timeless.
A lot of classics would be in the "aged badly" category if not.
Oh, welcome to the forum.
I love Arctic Monkeys btw.

They may not have been around for FA, but they are definitely in one scene of the Pauline Acquart short Au Septieme Jour which is on Vimeo, er, somewhere.
* I should have said a formal hello like everybody else, really, but you were so immediately at home that it seemed a bit redundant. Calling you Monkeys is making me smile, for some daft reason...
I wonder what the actual viewer figures are for FA? I'd bet a good chunk of the West, at least, has seen it by now.
Also I think it will be winning hearts and minds for some considerable time to come, irrespective of passing fashions.
