It's Valentine's Day, time for a sapphic couple portrait painting (fan artwork from 2012): Kitty Butler and Nancy Astley, the main characters in the Victorian period movie "Tipping the Velvet", based on the same called novel by Sarah Waters (starring Rachael Stirling as Nancy "Nan" Astley and Keeley Hawes as Kitty Butler).

The two women are standing in front of a building, closely to each other. They are wearing Victorian fashion and hats, in mauve/pink and dark blue. One of them has dark brown hair, the other one is blond. Both are looking at the viewer and one has her hand (in a glove) on the belly of the other one.

Watched "Emily" on @kanopy last night. I love period films. But I'm tired of them making up hot relationships for women when there's no evidence of them. Cut it out.

I'm looking at you, .

Just watched House of Mirth last night myself. Guess great minds stream alike ...

First, it's gorgeous: every frame a painting. Fine performances by Gillian Anderson, Eric Stolz, & Anthony LaPaglia. Dan Ackroyd not so much. Laura Linney was, superbly, incandescently hateful.

The ending: who HASN’T considered suicide instead of a job? But I wished Lily shared the cheerful resilience of, say, Anne Elliot's friend Miss Smith.

Watching House of Mirth starring Gillian Anderson and Eric Stoltz, et al. Based on an Edith Wharton novel of the same name. Wharton made her female protagonists sympathetic through their tragic circumstances and choices. Though they may not always be rendered destitute, they may feel forced to trade in love for security, and acceptability.
