This is a must have video for ANY Lucy Lawless fan. Actually contains 3 movies. The first is Peach a wonderful short film were she plays a tow truck driver who very sexily helps a girl realize she's worth something, awesome work and Lucy's big smile all over the place. The second is a strange little piece about a sick girl who's father ignores her, Lucy plays the childs nurse in the hospital. Lucy's appearance in this short film was her first, That's Why It's Important To Have! But don't close your eyes it's only a couple of short scenes. The last is an interview/documentary piece on lesbian filmmakers. A highly recommended trio tape to own!!!

Lucy Lawless barely is even shown in these short films. You can definatley tell it's low buget. During the whole viewing I sat there with a "WHAT IS THIS" look. I like Lucy Lawless but I think I'll stick with Xena. Dont buy save your money.

The object of the Woman's (Lucy Lawless) conquest got a nice lesson in non-attachment and the promise it can bring. The film was short, yes, but gave the viewer a chance to imagine what followed. The girl also was taught that she has some worth- "you make things happen". Bitter Song's reason for being, to me, is that it is Lucy's very first film appearance. The blurb on the box is quite misleading, however. One kept expecting to see the nurse do more than routine hospital chores;there was really no special contact with the child. A historic document of a terrific actress.

For any Lucy Lawless fan, or GLBT drama fan, "Peach" is a must see. Short, but artistic, it is worth seeing. For the price, however . . . I guess it depends on your fandom-ness. My friend bought it about four years ago. We were both obsessive Xena fans, and were both coming out of the closet, but I guess she was slightly more obsessive in both areas. Great video, but I wouldn't pay more than 12 bucks for it. Then again, she always called me a cheapskate.

I liked Peach. Of course, anything with Lucy in it appeals to me. Yes, it is quite short. And, yes, Lucy has few lines and minimal screentime but, I still found it enjoyable. If you are an avid admirer of Lucy`s work, Peach is a nice little addition to your collection.

I must admit that Peach is indeed a must to have for Lucy Lawless fans. I followed that same advise and it really is a must to have it. Allthough it is a shortfilm, it is a very nice and tempting small movie. Lawless in one of her first performance already put a very strong acting there. Same kind of manner, same kind of talking, just all Lawless as we will see her later on in Hercules and ofcourse Xena, going further in X-files and BSG. A very nice acting on the edge of romance and tempting love.
I advise strongly to buy it if you are a Lucy Lawless fans.

Lucy Lawless in the movie PEACH: Peach is a very low buget movie and it shows. lots of smiles from the girls, but very little touching. No lip action at all. Lucy Lawless does more touching and kissing with same sex on her show XWP. Save your money, tune into XWP.

... It is the stupedist, dreariest, most boring thing i have ever sat through....Lucy Lawless Fans Beware, if you blink you will miss her...please save your money...and if you think there are gong to be titillating sex scenes, forget it...anything sexual is implied, you see absolutely nothing....

I have to admit that pretty much the only reason i bought this dvd was because it featured Lucy Lawless in a very little-known role.
I'm verty glad to say i was pleasantly surprised.

Peach is a magnificent, picturesque, quaint and passionate insight into an everyday situation, taken from a very personal perspective. Although short, every second is made to maintain the standard running throughout.

A Bitter Song (Lucy Lawless' first film role) is intoxicating. I was unable to tear my eyes away from the powerful childs view of the world, showing so many unique situations in a brand new way that is rarely even thought of.

Very highly recommended.

Pass this by, folks. Unless, like some of my friends, you need to pull a joke on someone. It is simplistic, yawning, and cartoony. LL barely appears in both films. And just when you think something interesting may happen, it's the end. When are they going to offer XENA: WARRIOR PRINCESS videos?
