Bound at The Cube
Headfirst Editor's Pick

"Sell out warning! The Wachowski sisters’ gritty pre-Matrix masterpiece is an unparalleled lesbian neo-noir thriller; crying out for a widespread 21st century re-appraisal. Think Thelma & Louise meets Blood Simple with Tarantino-esque violent excess and subversive erotica. Bound divided (mostly male) critics - achieving instant cult status on a miniscule budget."

Tough ex-con Corky (Gina Gershon) and her lover Violet (Jennifer Tilly) concoct a scheme to steal millions of stashed mob money.

Lana and Lilly Wachowski’s stylish, sexually charged and razor-sharp feature debut Bound: one of the great ’90s thrillers and a breakthrough for lesbian representation in mainstream American filmmaking. Working on a tight budget, the Wachowskis eschewed Hollywood norms in their depiction of a relationship between two female protagonists, employing feminist author and activist Susie Bright to choreograph the sex scenes.
