Below Her Mouth (2016)
I first heard about this movie from TikTok-in the video the narrator said, “Hey, you’re a lesbian! How many times have you watched Below Her Mouth?” To which the lesbian in question replied, “Three.” Then the narrator asked what the movie was about...and there was no response because they did not have any idea. This is all the context that I had before watching the movie and all the context you need to engage with this review. I trust that you can discern what made this film, with a title that gives me fanny flutters, engrossing enough to watch thrice and yet not retain an ounce of the plot.
The yearning in this movie is mostly just ridiculous amounts of sexual tension between one high-fashion, boss-bitch and the Swedish god of androgyny. The sex scenes. Exquisite. Truly magical. In an alley, in a car, in the sexiest and most well lit bathtub. I’ll explain that the authenticity score is 3.5 because one of the women is in a serious relationship with a man and I have heard that some people do realize they are queer when they are already in a relationship with a man, so that seems real. But I have nothing more to say. You know what you need to know. This movie is vital. We must protect her at all costs.
