Itty Bitty Titty Committee

This 2007 US film is described  as "feminist" and "lesbian-related". It tells the story of a young lesbian falling in love with another lesbian who is involved with a militant feminist "Clits in Action'" -- hilariously abbreviated as 'C(i)A' -- group.

After a while, the relationship is in trouble and it is only saved trough the execution of a cunning plan that involves manipulating the output of a regional television station to show the Washington Monument dressed up like a penis.

The film sometimes gives an amateurish impression and I found it rather boring.

Providence

I don't think a film should need a manual to be comprehensible. This one by Alain Resnais does. Worse, it is also pretentious, pointless and boring although Dirk Bogarde is rather good. I didn't even finish it. To avoid at all cost.
