Headfirst Editor's Pick
"Charming date night romcom alert! Rated R on release because of systemic film board homophobia, this is actually an incredibly sweet yet totally groundbreaking 90s coming-out coming-of-ager bristling with optimism and light-hearted joy ft. a young Laurel Holloman (pre-The L Word)."

A event held at The Cube on Wednesday 12th June. The event starts at 19:30.
Coming-of-age comedy The Incredibly True Adventure of Two Girls In Love tells the story of two teenagers who unexpectedly experience the excitement, surprise, and romantic fantasy of first love.
Randy, a rebellious working class tomboy, meets the beautiful, popular, well-to-do Evie when she brings her Range Rover into the repair shop where Randy works after school. Immediately intrigued by each other, the two girls start a romance that delights and disrupts their lives, causing Evie to lose her friends, Randy to lie to her parents, and sending the two of them on the run.
"The film occupies an interesting spot in social history in terms of what it represents and how rare it was for there to be a movie like that in 1995. Lesbians were still in the place where there was no way to 'see yourself,' so the film had a huge impact because of that." - Maria Maggenti
Now celebrated as an iconic part of the 1990s queer cinema canon. Matter-of-fact, funny, sincere and romantic, The Incredibly True Adventure of Two Girls In Love is a real gem and perfect date movie for all.
19:00 Doors Open
!9:30 Screening Starts (1 hour 34 Minutes)
Entry requirements: 16+
