剧情简介
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.。从国家运动队退役回乡的曲小河在未婚夫万嘉明的厂区意外见到了一场严重的污染事故，从而卷入了与婆家万成集团的矛盾冲突中，婚姻受挫，紧接而来的童装博览会叫停、仿牌和黑心棉曝光、“三合一厂房”火灾等等突发事件，使她看清了潜藏在织女镇繁荣背后的危机，在凌化雨和夏正阳等人的支持下，她放弃个人利益，留在织女镇当上了负责基层治理的副镇长。在长达八年的艰难岁月中，她顶着镇长郑良器和“两面人”徐康设下的重重压力和一次次陷害，坚持扎根于基层社区，和王书文、齐美丽等一批志同道合者一起，从最平凡的小事做起，为一方百姓创建了平安美丽的家园，帮助上万家中小企业走上了一条凤凰涅槃的新生之路，她与万嘉明的爱情也在这一场场的人生跌宕中经受了考验。。
