Made for only $350,000 in 1985 when no one wanted to fund or star in a movie about lesbians, Desert Hearts is widely considered the first full-length lesbian love story, and its success paved the way for the proliferation of lesbian films we enjoy today. Directed by Donna Deitch and set in 1950's Reno, Nevada, Desert Hearts tells the story of a 35-year-old uptight female professor Vivian (Helen Shaver) who comes to town to file for divorce and ends up falling in love with a free-spirited 25-year-old casino worker Cay (Patricia Charbonneau). Although Vivian left her husband because she had "drowned in still waters," she is not quite prepared for the tidal wave-effect Cay has on her life. As Vivian herself admits, her life is all about "order," and her image of herself as a scholar and a professional, upstanding woman does not include a relationship with a woman. Cay, meanwhile, is living at home with her stepmother, Frances (Audra Lindley) while she waits to meet someone who "counts"--and she almost immediately recognizes that Vivian is that someone. Both women struggle with conflicting desires and a sense of obligation to others, and are ultimately drawn together not just because of their attraction to each other, but because each woman offers the other something she has been unable to find on her own.。Fishing boat captain Harry Morgan charters his boat. Due to strained finances, he is none too careful as to whom he does business with. Real trouble erupts when Harry hires out his boat to transport four men who turn out to be criminals on the lam from a racetrack heist.。年仅21岁的威廉·威伯福斯（艾恩·格拉法德 Ioan Gruffudd饰）在好友威廉姆·彼特（本尼迪克特·康伯巴奇 Benedict Cumberbatch饰）的劝说下加入英国议会。两人共同领导了反奴隶运动，与反对者展开激烈的斗争。然而威伯福斯拟定的关于反黑奴的议案还是被国会否定了。身心疲惫的威伯福斯被议会的明争暗斗弄得心力交瘁，患上大肠炎。1797年，当他来到乡下朋友家静养的时候，遇见了他的崇拜者芭芭拉·史普纳（萝玛拉·嘉瑞 Romola Garai饰）。威伯福斯向她讲述了他所为之奋斗的事业，两人相爱并结了婚。终于，在1807年威伯福斯的议案得到部分通过，坚守反黑奴运动的队伍也开始逐渐壮大。 本片根据英国政治家、改革家，废除奴隶制倡导者威廉·威伯福斯的人物原型改编，讲述他在18世纪的英国国会长期坚持反黑奴运动并与反对者展开斗争的故事。影片使用电脑技术将过去影片与现在影像结合在一起，上演一场关于正义与邪恶较量的史诗。。
