Rating: - Important Lesbian Herstory
I was totally disturbed when I saw the lesbian club scene in the film "Black Dahlia." There, a lesbian club is shown as huge with many lights and everyone having a good time. Every gay studies text said that being in a gay or lesbian club in the mid-20th century could have gotten you arrested, fired, and worse. Clubs were often holes in the wall because they didn't want to be noticed by others or were run by the mafia. Lesbian bar frequenters at that time were brave women taking risks. This documentary points to the realities of a lesbian club over the decades.
