How Did I Miss This?

Late last night on HBO they showed "If these Walls Could Talk," which if you don't already know is a three-part vignette about lesbians, spanning a few decades.
How wonderful this show was, especially Vanessa Redgrave as the elderly widow of a lesbian whose nephew (a near stranger) comes to call after the funeral and tries to negotiate taking away the house the two women shared for decades. A cautionary tale!
Then in the next segment, a cute lesbian falls for a stone butch who wears a tie and rankles her feminist roomates because of all that politically correct bullshit from the 70's. The stone butch was too cute, and I don't even like that type.
Finally, Sharon Stone and Ellen DeGeneris play a loving couple trying to get pregnant. I love Sharon Stone for taking this role and playing it to the hilt. The love scenes were especially nice. The happy pregnancy dance at the end was just wonderful.
I have to salute HBO for it's wonderful programming for and about gay people. They don't hold back and they are worthy of the extra money on the cable bill. So is Showtime, for that matter. Their Tales of the City series was outstanding.
HBO has become a seriously good filmmaking studio and deserves queer support.
