Made for only $350,000 in 1985 when no one wanted to fund or star in a movie about lesbians, Desert Hearts is widely considered the first full-length lesbian love story, and its success paved the way for the proliferation of lesbian films we enjoy today. Directed by Donna Deitch and set in 1950's Reno, Nevada, Desert Hearts tells the story of a 35-year-old uptight female professor Vivian (Helen Shaver) who comes to town to file for divorce and ends up falling in love with a free-spirited 25-year-old casino worker Cay (Patricia Charbonneau). Although Vivian left her husband because she had "drowned in still waters," she is not quite prepared for the tidal wave-effect Cay has on her life. As Vivian herself admits, her life is all about "order," and her image of herself as a scholar and a professional, upstanding woman does not include a relationship with a woman. Cay, meanwhile, is living at home with her stepmother, Frances (Audra Lindley) while she waits to meet someone who "counts"--and she almost immediately recognizes that Vivian is that someone. Both women struggle with conflicting desires and a sense of obligation to others, and are ultimately drawn together not just because of their attraction to each other, but because each woman offers the other something she has been unable to find on her own.。香港少女李小玉为了与远在美国的未婚夫Peter结婚,变卖了自己的房子与产业,历尽千辛万苦来到美国,由于没有美国居住权,她在Peter的怂恿下,与当地唐人街的无业人员钱宝假结婚,准备在两年后取得了居住权就与钱宝离婚,重归Peter的怀抱。钱宝是个好赌却又热心的中年男人,为了偿还巨额赌债,他看在Peter与小玉的酬金份上同意与小玉假结婚,谁知在他俩结婚的第二天,Peter就席卷了小玉的全部财产逃跑,把小玉丢给了钱宝,钱宝闻讯大怒,把小玉赶出家门,小玉在美国举目无亲,流落街头,好心的钱宝再次收留了她,但两个身无分文的华人如何在美国立足呢?。
