**Screenwriter**: Phyllis Nagy from the novel by Patricia Highsmith **Producers**: Elizabeth Karlsen, Stephen Woolley, Christine Vachon Fall in love all over again with Todd Haynes’ dreamy Mid-Century lesbian romance! Based on the novel *The Price of Salt* from complicated but legendary queer author Patricia Highsmith (*Strangers on a Train*), this look at forbidden love in an oppressive age is as lovely as it is romantic. Therese, a young aspiring photographer working as a shop girl encounters the elegant, upper-crust Carol shopping at her Manhattan department store. The two women develop a friendship that deepens into a forbidden romance in a time when homosexuality wasn’t spoken of and certainly not encouraged. Gorgeously filmed on 16mm celluloid to achieve the perfect look, with magnificent period details and an all-consumingly beautiful romance, this is not just a Christmas film, it’s a love story for the ages! **Picks from the Video Store** Want more lesbian rarities for Christmas?
