This 1998 HBO movie is what truly launched Angelina Jolie to stardom. She plays the title role of Gia Marie Carangi, considered the first modern super-model with various covers in the 1970s and ‘80s.
As a wild child herself, Jolie was well suited for the part, showing the reckless side of Gia and her desire to live life to the fullest no matter what. While she’s bisexual, her lesbian feelings are on full display for a segment where she agrees to pose nude for a photographer only if his makeup girl, Linda, stays to watch. Soon Linda is intrigued by Gia’s bold nude shoot and undresses herself, with the two sharing kisses through the fence Gia is posing on. It then cuts to them in bed together, Jolie clearly the aggressor with no problems showing off but Mitchell answering well.
The send-off is funny with Jolie in the hallway stark naked trying to talk Mitchell into staying. They have another hot encounter later on in the shower that’s as steamy as it sounds and both times, Jolie is totally believable going with a lady and pushing the fantastic style that’s made her a Hollywood icon.

A popular art house hit in 1998, this drama begins with Ally Sheedy as a drug-using artist making out with model Patricia Clarkson. Sheedy soon meets photo editor Radha Mitchell and the two immediately bond. Their eventual sex scene is well done, Mitchell tentative as it’s her first time and the usually aggressive Sheedy holding back a bit to ease her into it.
It’s wonderfully convincing and well shot as they move around the bed together and it’s a good touch how Sheedy responds faster as Mitchell gets more into it. It’s not just a “lesbian movie” but a well-done personal drama of artists’ lives but that hot scene does showcase how Sheedy is far greater a talent than most give her credit for and how well she and Mitchell click on screen.
