All About E

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.

Our local small and historic theater plays a huge variety of movies and I was lucky enough to see this one come through with a director and lead actor's Q&A following the evening's screening. What a joy. It joins a select number of VERY Australian genre films which reflect a particularly Aussie sense of place, humour, subject and pace. The script pulls no punches and addresses its subject matter full on. There are ample lashings of pathos, comedy, subtle 'only an Australian audience would get this moment', brilliant suspense, and a rollicking good tour of rural Australia - all within a setting of a Lesbian movie that is so much more than that 'label'. Whilst mentioning the Aussie setting here - it is very much at the same time an international movie too ... there are just some unfamiliar places for those not from here.

The music and staging throughout the film is of the highest quality. In fact that is the reflective recall after leaving the movie house. So often a good movie is spoiled by inadequate production or a soundtrack which annoys the heck out of you ... not this one.

If it comes your way go see it. This is boutique film making at its best. How the heck they produced such a full item on the budget quoted is beyond me.

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.

This Lesbian road movie is a fabulous, must see, film. The acting, cinematography, landscapes and of course the gorgeous looking actors all are what makes this such an enjoyable movie. A story about belonging - not belonging - identity search - and the adventures along the way. Just don't miss it - All the ingredients for a fun time with kids, dogs and tractors. Shot in the Australian out back you can feel the atmosphere and heat of the surroundings. It includes probably the best Lesbian sex scene you will ever see on screen and all that set to the wonderful music by Basil Hogios. All about e has been received at film festivals in the United States and Australia with brilliant reviews and audiences wanting more. Full houses all the way - Repeat performances requested and arranged.

Loved seeing the film - in fact, so much so, I've watched it three times. The whole cast is great, but the three leads are particularly good, including newcomer Mandahla Rose who is especially terrific in her role as a somewhat conflicted musician-turned-DJ on the run from her boss with a stash of cash. She's tough but tender and like all the women in the film, strong and determined. Loved the Lebanese back story (the scene with E's mother really resonated) along with the original soundtrack music.

The characters are multidimensional rather than the usual clichés we often see in Australian films - especially ones with LGBTQI characters or ones with outback settings. Even the two drag queens and E's best friend didn't conform to the stereotypes we are so often presented with of bitchy gay men. Totally refreshing! Culturally it's also diverse and beautifully filmed in places - the farm scenes especially bring the landscape alive.
