Edie & Thea: A Very Long Engagement (USA, 2009)This moving documentary is the story of the life-long love affair of two New York based lesbians, who after 42 years together are finally getting married. Meeting in the 1960s when being out as a lesbian was much more problematic than it is now, Edie and Thea knew they were meant to be together even if society was not ready for them to be. Through the use of old photographs, home movies and insightful and entertaining interviews with these two remarkable women Muska and Olafsdóttir (The Brandon Teena Story) have created a tender portrait of their life together. In doing so they've made a film which is an important document of the struggles gay people faced growing up and living in a less tolerant time. A truly heartfelt and inspiring story of two women in love who would not let society tell them it was wrong, and who waited a lifetime to say 'I do'.
