In the trailer, there's a moment near the end where Brittany and Tammy Blanchard are sitting together in a questionable way. Is it just wishful thinking or did anyone else notice this?
sharehaha yeah I did notice that too but I didn`t give that scene much of attention. They were in the same bed or something.
shareI presumed they were since they apparently live together, but I guess they could just be roommates. Still it would be nice to see a homosexual couple on screen where their being a homosexual couple wasn't a plot device and was just by the by, y'know?.
Sometimes, baby bison die.
I doubt she's a lesbian, just really hammy acting. Bless her, I think she's great, nay amazing in Spun and Sin City, but oh so limited in her acting range.

Theres a part where her friend is angry because Brittany doesnt tell anyone about her. That conversation implies that they are lesbos. Also, in her made up world of ghosts, Lucy is accused of having a lesbo relationship by David while he films her... He gets all defensive and starts to ask about some girl.
shareFirst of all, there's a difference between lesbian and bisexual. Alice has an ex man in prison, whom she apparently lost a child with, so she's clearly not a "lesbian" based on the whole story as we were shown it.
It does appear there's something between them, with the way Rebecca questions Alice keeping her a secret, and the last scene where Alice says the same thing we saw David say to Lucy about looking like an angel when she sleeps. But it's not really any more than suggested by those things. There's nothing that confirms it, because it wasn't important to the story to clarify that I suppose.
As to the lesbian accusation by David, you're just mistaken, reziztor. There wasn't an accusation of Lucy being intimate with Marie. When David is questioning Lucy, he first suggests she could be lying about going to see her friend Marie, and seeing another man instead. Then David later suggests that Marie was out of town and that Lucy had actually gone to see Marie's lonely man, I believe Luke was his name.
This is what I got out of that conversation also.
shareWouldn't mind seen her and Tammy Blanchard in a steamy Lesbian scene
but unfortunately When there's no more room in hell, The dead will walk the earth...
What was the point in having a lesbian couple in this? they hardly ever spent any time together and were never intimate. another trash story arc im afraid.
shareI don't think they were lesbians. They were very close best friends, with a bit of sexual tension thrown in for good measure...probably to try and make it more interesting.
The scene on the bed, ie. 'why don't you tell anyone about me', Alice clearly says 'because I don't want him to get the wrong idea'...well, if it's the wrong idea, then it means nothing sexual is actually happening, even though the tension is there. I think it's also meant to reflect the relationship between Lucy and her friend on the phone, that she ended up feeling like she had to hide talking and going out with her because David was less than impressed.
So yeah...like the rest of the film...all implication and no actual cigar...to mix metaphors LOL
I interpreted that "the wrong idea" people might get wasn't necessarily that they were in a lesbian relationship, but rather that Alice was on the rebound from her relationship with Ben, and/or was dating too soon after her traumatic experience.
shareYes she and the other girl were lesbians. There is a scene where she is mad at Brittany for not telling her friends and family about her. And she asks if she is ashamed of her. I dont think anyone would be ashamed of just a friend. I think because there are no intimate momements in the film people seem to thing they are just close friends. The writers of the films seemed like they were trying to do something a little different by making them lesbians.
shareI just think they were very close friends, and that Alice was developing feelings for her friend, hence the filming of her friend asleep, and wanting to keep her to herself by not introducing her to her other friends. Unfortunately, due to her trama connected with her abusive boyfriend, she was unable to express this in a healthy way, and she ended up having a nervous breakdown and hallucinating the whole David and Lucy scenario as an expression of her desire for her friend.
I got five on it!
I want to see it free online!
How about a group of her films?
Certain implied lesbian relationship, however ridiculously pointless it was. There was pretty much no point to the conversation in bed otherwise.
shareThe relationship between Brittany and Tammy is not a question of whether they are lesbians or even in a relationship. The whole idea is to hint at Brittany (Alice)'s obsession for the girl. They are clearly close friends and Tammy's character almost seems sort of motherly towards Alice.
The whole point of the film was to reflect Alice's mental instability in her story, she was merging both reality and imagination into one, therefore finding herself unable to tell the difference. This is why the obsession in her story 'The Deadline' between Lucy and David, occurred.
Also, if the two were in a relationship, we wouldn't have had the really shocked face at the end from Tammy's character when she saw the footage of herself sleeping and Alice saying she looked like an angel. You can clearly see from her face that the realisation has hit, just how unstable and unpredictable Alice is.
Hope this helps!

I thought that it was clear that they were in a relationship.
To the well-organized mind, death is but the next great adventure.

Alice and Rebecca are in a romantic relationship. They just don't play up on it too much with making out and such to avoid the film being judged solely based on the fact that two women are together in it. Alice even says that she doesn't want Ben to know about Rebecca, probably because she thinks that Ben might hurt Rebecca if he finds out about them. The conversation where Rebecca asks her if she is ashamed of her, and tells her "I haven't met any of your friends yet" sets her apart as more than just a friend. I didn't think it was that hard to pick up on that they were in a romantic relationship.
"I like my coffee black, just like my metal"
Agreed. They were clearly in a romantic relationship.

Will you be my dog, Brad?
I also thought it was very apparent that they were "involved" as more than just friends.
I do wonder why it would matter to any viewer of this film whether they were lesbians. That was the least confusing part of the story for me to understand. IMO, I thought the movie was good for a couple of "spooks" but that was about it. I thought the story sucked, the actors half-assed it, and I could see it coming....the non-climatic ending, like about 5 minutes before it ended. Yet I held out hope, thinking ..."They've time to pull some tricks out of their sleeves yet!" But No!... Just another 'copy cat, seen it a thousand times before' ending.
So, a more important question than the characters sexual orientation would just be "Why?" "Why take all the time to write a screen play, develop a halfway decent cast, put all the work it takes to make a film, and not come up with a better frigging ending than that?"
I think I was also more disappointed in this film because I knew it was one of the last new things I'd see Ms. Murphy in, and though I didn't think she was the greatest actress of all time, I appreciate her for entertaining me while she did.
