The Flamingo Kid (1984)

David Foster, Linda Thompson, Wayne Gretzky, Janet Jones, Tommy Lee and Pamela Anderson at the 1995 Grammy Awards.

Characters: Janet Jones and Abbey Zimet

From: Pulp by Robin Talley

Representation: Lesbian, Jewish (Abbey)

Their Importance: Pulp tells the intertwined stories of Abbey Zimet and Janet Jones, two lesbian teenagers living 62 years apart in times of great political upheaval. The story begins in 2017 with Abbey becoming fascinated with lesbian pulp novels of the fifties, deciding to write her own as a school project. Meanwhile in 1955 Janet realises her orientation at the height of the Lavender Scare. Her only lifeline is the same pulp novels, the safest way to see women like her. The two girls’ stories begin to intertwine in unexpected ways. The entire plot is based around toying with the oldest clichés that dog lesbian representation even now. It also shows the audience that lesbian communities have always existed and that women found ways to live their lives together under the radar. It doesn’t whitewash, noting the worse clichés of the pulp genre and showing how lesbian subcultures had and continue to have the same problems with racism and classism as mainstream society. Abbey is also Jewish with various Jewish holidays being minor plot points.

Issues: The plot is heavily impacted by period-typical homo/lesbophobia and racism in context of the McCarthy era.
