Loving Annabelle

I swear 90% of all teen lesbian movies are either a: dreadfully dull or b: wander around aimlessly before ending without reaching any real point or of course c: both...
*sigh*
I mean a movie about a teacher/student relationship? At an all-girl Catholic private school? C'mon! How is that not a recipe for super hotness? It doesn't help that Diane Gaidry (poetry teacher Simone) and Erin Kelly (rebellious teen Annabelle) are attractive but very slight actors. And that in a 77 minute movie they spend 60 of them dancing around anything resembling conflict and/or the sex. If your going to label your movie as "a controversial story of forbidden love" maybe you should PUT SOME OF THAT IN THE MOVIE. Or even focus more on the over-controlling Mother Superior who runs the place. You now the one who forces to wear giant crosses until she agrees to stop wearing Buddhist prayer beads?
So disappointing...
