If you are looking for a good weekend classic to rent this weekend

a great recommendation is

It's in the Water

This is one gay little movie.

The movie centers on a small Texas town and it's fear and homophobia.  But even though it is based on very serious subject, make no mistake, this movie is a watered down style of any John Waters film.  Meaning... it's a comedy, it's entertaining and it's campy.

The story starts with a rumer that the towns water is polluted

and making its citizens... gay! 

What makes this movie a lesbian classic is the all too familiar story of a stuck in a rut, mostly unhappily married woman coming to terms with her feelings toward her high school best friend.  Sound familiar?  And in a small Texas debutant town, you can imagine the mayhem, particularly when her snobish bossy mother and frustrated husband finds out.

Oh, and it also doesn't hurt at all that the two lead women in the movie are gorgeous.
