5.0 out of 5 stars A movie your mother could watch., April 6, 2002
By A Customer
Cynara was my first experience with Lesbian Erotica. I thought I had stumbled on a wonderful genre, and ordered several similar (so I thought) videos for my collection.

After viewing the other videos including Siren, Goodbye Emma Jo, and Et L'Amour, my collection now numbers 1. Compared to Cynara, the others were so inferior it hurt my eyes to watch them.

Cynara has beautiful women, beautiful poetry, beautiful music, the sea, and horses. While it has a few rough edges (cinematography) for the most part, it is done in good taste, a real "ladies" movie. I think my mother would approve.

This film is not about sex or love but of passion and desire. The actresses are thoughtfully paired. You get the feeling that both women are Lesbians, not straight actresses pretending to be attracted to each other.

Melissa Hellman (Byron) is a remarkable beauty. Her eyes, hands, face, hair, and wonderfully sculpted body lend themselves to this period piece (set in 1883)...

5.0 out of 5 stars Cynara Poetry in Motion, September 6, 2004
I love this film. I have watched it over 200 times & it is still fascinating. Both women are gorgeous. I love seeing a Lesbian film that is not pornographic & has only the women in it. Nicolle Conn has outdone herself. I am in love with Johanna Nemeth.
The music is wonderful.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not at all what I thought it could have been ...., February 21, 2004
By N. Barnes "twoindigos" (Kingsport, Tennessee United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This movie could have been so much more if time and effort was put into it .. very disapointing.. there were no love scenes worth mentioning .. just two models posing .. there was no story line, not to mention neither one of the charaters said more than 20 words between them ....the movie is only 30 min. or so long ...I dont think I could have stood it much longer . If you must see this movie rent it or get it used somewhere . I enjoyed the end credits better than the movie .

Nicole Conn has "outdone herself" on this one? Maybe that's part of the problem. She should stick to documentary work, these movies (Claire of the Moon also) are lacking. Read more
