Don't listen to the negative reviews

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

SPOILERS "E" (Mandahla Rose) is a DJ down oondah in Australia, and when she accidentally takes her boss's bag of money, it turns her life upside down. She loses her girlfriend Trish (Julia Billington), and freaks out her own parents by telling them they must go on holiday so her boss doesn't harm them. Her gay manager Matt (Brett Rogers) is also her best friend, but even that relationship is on the rocks. With all this going on, E and Matt hit the road with the stolen money, and hope for the best. So many bad decisions. Great outdoor scenery shots of the hot, dry, outback of Australia. You really feel the hot air and parched earth. Written and directed by Lousie Wadley, of Girls Own Productions, which you can read about here www.girlsown.com/about/ . Good story, fine acting performances by all. Lots of mournful clarinet music throughout, since E used to play the clarinet - an ongoing theme. The title was a little confusing, and that may have been intentional; i wasn't sure if it was a reference to ecstasy, or maybe a parody of All About Eve. it's neither one. An upbeat ending, which was nice. Story was a little far-fetched... would someone really put their own life, and the lives of her parental units in such danger when the solution to all this could have been reached much earlier? maybe. still interesting to watch.

This is a humorous rom-com road movie with a slice of theft and a cross-country car chase that i would recommend going to see. It is an independently funded film that has high quality production values. Two girls, E and Trish fall in love but families complicate things. The gay best friend tries to add some common sense, but E isn't ready to hear it until the lives of the people closest to her are threatened when she attempts to run away from everything by running towards everyone she has upset over the years. It has an authentic feel of the real Australia, the countryside and the people, the White Australians and incomers depicted by Lebanese and British. Its not often a lesbian film comes along that shows women who love women that they would recognise, (without the gangsters chasing them), and this film delivers. A road movie that has everything, goodies, baddies, club music, classical music, families in conflict, and some fantastic scenery as the heroes travel through the outback. An independent film that therefore doesn't pander to the money-men, so yes, this is a film which does not follow the lesbian trope in any sense...

A great film. Lots of fun and laughs to be had. Great performances from not just the leads, but from the smallest bit part, making this an enjoyable film that makes you care for the characters. Despite the fact it is a lot of fun, it can be, at times, very emotional. Can really tug at the heart strings as we are let in on the lives, warts and all, of E and her friends. No-one in this film is perfect. They are all human, all have flaws ... and that makes them so much more interesting and we become invested in the outcome of their story. This is ultimately a love story, a lesbian love story, and there is a love scene, with nudity, beween the two female leads. Beautifully shot and tenderly played. Thus is not gratuitous..and definitely not a sex scene. It is a love scene between two characters who truly love each other. Cannot recommend this enough. It is a brilliant film. Loved it.

This is a wonderful movie, with something for everyone. Who could believe that such a low budget film could capture so much! Without giving too much away, the film contains a sultry anti-hero E and her beautiful sidekick Brett; her brooding family and a tribe of ex-lovers, a dog to warm anyone's heart, evil crooks and an exciting chase. There's a stunning sex scene, and best of all, the most magnificent Australian outback country & skys. This movie had twenty six screening in Australia over summer, many to sold-out audiences. The sound track is superb, and fortunately available on CD so it can be transported to your home or car. All about E is made by independent film-makers and first time Director Louise Wadley and Producer Jay Rutovitz deserve the acclaim that has been theirs since the first showing. It opened the 2015 Sydney's Mardi Gras Film Festival, a testament to its popularity.
