Quotes:

Marc Hall: Faggots. That's why they say "faggots." When they used to burn people like her, St. Joan, at the stake, they would gather all the local homos and bundle them with twigs. These twigs - that's why they say faggots. Fuel for the main event.
Miss Lawrence: Flamers.
Marc Hall: You got it. But, hey, I mean, St. Joan was a sister of Sappho herself.
Miss Lawrence: Marc, St. Joan of Arc was not a lesbian.
Marc Hall: Hello - leading an army, dressing up like a guy, I mean, come on, dyke city. She was a big ol', carpet-munchin' lesbian.

Movie not spectacular...meaning amazing

For those of you who wish to condemn gay and lesbian relations, shame on you. This movie, although not the greatest quality had a lot of meaning behind it which I admire and is greatly needed in today's society to teach the bigots of the world that society is changing. How long ago did we separate church from state anyway? As the story shows, the rights of every human being is the first priority ahead of the priority of the church and this is as it should be.

I would like to thank all of those that participated in this film as they helped to send a message that all people regardless of their sexual preference, are equal.
