Violet Tendencies

Violet Tendencies was fantastic as far I'm concerned. Casper Andreas and Jesse Archer make the perfect movie making match. The movie was well written. It was funny,had drama and was sad at times and had a great message if you paid attention. I won't say what it is, you'll have to figure it out yourselves when you see it. Mindy was so great in her starring role, it was like the role was written for her. Well, actually I will tell you what I got out of it. Don't let anyone dictate who you are or what you want. Be yourself. Fantastic movie! Well done Casper and Jesse and everyone else involved!

what a wonderful story of finding love in the most unlikely places,Mindy Cohn shines through out this story of friends and love and the mistakes we make along the way..A great little feel good kind of movie.....Casper Andreas does it once again with a well written and acted story with fun and laughter and some tears thrown in. Sit back and watch Violet a middle age Fruit fly and all of her wonderful gay friends search for love and the bumpy road one takes in the search of love and happiness....

Trash. Horrible flaming stereotypes; catty, shallow, promiscuous, two-dimensional characters. Catty does not equal clever. Yuk.

Smile and laugh when you watch this movie. It's a fun loving story which I alway's enjoy and have love Mindy in this picture.

If all this featured was the male cast, VIOLET TENDENCIES would be just another gay movie, complete with cardboard characters and cliché situations that were done much better years ago on QUEER AS FOLK. I wasn’t invested in any of the guys but Mindy Cohn makes the movie. She was great on THE FACTS OF LIFE and if you imagine Natalie as a 40-year-old f*g-hag, you have a good idea of what you’re in for. The little moments from Mindy are what make this film worth a watch—whether she’s out clubbing in a pleather catsuit (complete with kitty ears) or looking simultaneously bored/frustrated during a round of vanilla sex, she’s a delight. And thanks to her, I know now what a FUPA is!

I could relate to this movie on so many levels. Violet is the woman you want to be your friend through thick or thin. She is excellently played by Mindy Cohn (Facts of Life Natalie) Casper Andreas is a great callaborator with the gay community and his quality and realistic films show!!

This is one of my favorite gay-theme movies. The plot is fun and the acting is excellent, with an uplifting "finding love in unexpected places" ending.

The plot and the movie's outcome of this made in Canada movie "Violet Tendencies" is so obvious that no thinking is required in this film. I knew the plot and its conclusion after the first few minutes and after the characters and their problem were established. The main character is Violet (played by Mindy Cohen of the old TV series "Facts of Life") who is a very serious "Fag Hag" that has reached the age of forty (40) and is tired of seeing her gay male friends pairing up and having relationships. She only has gay male friends and lives her life through them. At "middle age" she wants a "real" man of her own with a man that she can wake up with. After many attempts and much advice on how to land someone interested in her and not her gay friends, she accepts the fact that she is really happy and fulfilled as she is. It seems that I have seen the main plot and subplots of this movie so many times before. There are no surprising twists or turns to this movie. Be advised that this film is purported to be in New York city--the city scenes are far too clean appearing;I think it was filmed in a Canadian city.
