A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

This movie is on Netflix streaming movies. How much one likes it depends on how much they sympathize with the situations these girls find themselves in.In California, Erin Kelly (about 24) is Annabelle Tillman, daughter of a state politician, and finding herself repeatedly in trouble. A high school senior, she gets sent to a Catholic all girls boarding school, even though she wears Buddhist beads around her neck. But her parents see this as her last resort, if it doesn't work out here then it is off to military school.Annabelle is coy about her sexual orientation, but it becomes obvious soon that she is attracted to her female English teacher. That is Diane Gaidry as Simone Bradley. We gradually find out that Simone has her own interesting past, she had been educated at that same school and her aunt, the mother's sister, is the nun in charge of the school. And her "best friend" had died some years earlier, and it appeared they were more than just friends.Now, Simone is dating a nice man who is trying to convince her to move away from her apartment in the school and in with him, as a prelude to their getting married. But is it clear she has very cold feet, she finds excuses to postpone the discussion. In her position she knows that she should NOT be in a lesbian relationship, a man is the right choice, but she cannot commit to it.Annabelle senses all this and is very assertive in letting Simone know that she wants to pursue something with her, even though Simone is old enough to be her mother. That is perhaps the part that I was most dissatisfied with in this movie, it didn't seem real that a 17 or 18 yr old girl would be that persistent and obvious in pursuing her teacher. In fact as I watched it unfold I would call it stalking. So while I don't give it high marks it was indeed interesting and for the most part situations were handled as they should have been.SPOILERS: The girls in Annabelle's sphere sensed something was up and, one morning when Annabelle is missing from breakfast a student alerts the nun, who finds Annabelle and Simone just putting on their clothes after a night together in Simone's room. The cops are called and Simone is hauled off. Surely she should have known a relationship with a student is off limits and in fact criminal. Many object to this ending, but to me it is the only one that made sense in today's world.

I think that most lesbians have had big crushes on female teachers. Very few of us though are as bold as Annabelle Tillman. Annabelle, the rebellious daughter of a US senator, was kicked out of a couple of schools before winding up at a Catholic girls boarding school. She becomes enamored with her attractive literature teacher Simone Bradley, played by Diane Gaidry. Both Gaidry and Erin Kelly,who plays Annabelle, deliver very believable performances. There are some great characters in this film, Father Harris the elderly priest played by Kevin McCarthy is one of my favorites. Laura Breckenridge is wonderful as Colins, a student with an anxiety disorder that cuts herself. Ilene Graff does a good job as Mother Emaculata, the director of the school, and Simone's aunt. I love this film and have watched it many times. The music is great and I sometimes play it just to listen to the music.

This week I've been watching movies about lesbian stories and I liked each one I saw, and well, Loving Anabelle wasn't the exception, but I didn't like it as much at the others. It's a shame to me to say that maybe the reason I didn't like this movie was for the age difference. I don't have nothing against that, and at the end I liked how their relationship was, but it was weird to me from the start. And I think that the coincidence that they both, Simone and Anabelle, had had another romance with a woman before was strange, but it was OK because at last they understood each other. But overall, I liked the movie, i recommend it and I don't think is a waste of time. I didn't like so much the end, I mean, what happened next?? maybe I can imagine or guess, but I would've loved to see what happened with their lives, whether it was a happy or sad end.Besides, it shows a real school-life, tell life of a student in love with a teacher, and even thought I've never been in a situation like that, I know people who has, and I guess there are plenty persons who have been through that.
