Oh, this is so marvellously fabulously wonderful! I am having a day of mild stress and this just made everything shiny. YAY vid of queer female media history (the good parts) and, well, YAY LESBIANZ. I want to teach a class on queer media representation and appropriation and show this vid (apparently I relate to things via imaginary students, it'll be a while if ever before I have the chance to teach such a class!)
I loved... well, everything in fact, but especially the way you brought old and new footage together, the opening haircuts, the Buffy/Faith and Starbuck/Kat and Thelma and Louise and Greta Garbo and the delightful dyke cliches of Tipping the Velvet and and and... Well, all of it. You bring so much source together with such flair and skill and *joy* -- I am exceptionally glad that this vid exists, and it's already earned a permanent place on my ipod. :)
