More than Gay Pride, 21 November 2003
Author: Alexander Feld (afeld@alexanderfeld.com) from Sydney, Australia
This wonderful documentary was recently aired on late-night Australian public television, itself a veritable coup. Informative, insightful and loving, it is also hard-hitting, confrontational (especially about the continuing struggle for equality in partner benefits, marriage rights, etc.) and not the least bit sentimental. Bravo to these two brave ladies, and to the well-paced filmmaking. Favourite moment - Florida ruminations of a room full of 70-something Brooklyn Jews, accents somewhere between Jackie Mason and The Nanny. A long-standing friend, seemingly modeled on ZsaZsa Gabor, proclaims "Ruthie and Connie...they have the best relationship of us all!"
saw this on the Logo channel..., 8 April 2007

It is actually very good. Ruthie and Connie are two older women who have found love at a relatively late age; they were neighbors in NYC, and already had grandchildren when their relationship developed.
We see them in NY, with groups of friends, and also visiting their community in Florida. Their tenderness and concern for each other is moving, and at times humorous. It is positive to see their love and regard for each other, even with resistance of their own children.
I am glad for channels like this, where normally the mainstream does not get exposed to these kind of positive stories. To me, it is still censorship if an audience is not exposed to any human stories. I for one am tired of reviews screaming "liberal bias, or agenda". This is just a telling story about two women and brings something positive to the table for discussion. This is highly recommended,it is a positive, life-affirming story well worth seeing. 9/10.
Up Front Documentary, 19 July 2002
Author: Bob O'Link (Bobolink) from Amsterdam, The Netherlands
I saw this movie at the NYC Gay & Lesbian Film Fest and was honored to meet Ruth & Connie as well. They wonderfully combine Yiddishkeit with up-front lesbianism, compassion and humor. Highly recommended whatever your race, religion or sexual orientation.
