When lesbian pulp fiction emerged in the '50s, it had its fair share of problems—these "taboo" stories were often sensationalized and seen as immoral. Even so, this literature helped develop a burgeoning underground lesbian movement that was as vibrant as it was dangerous. In the 1992 documentary Forbidden Love: The Unashamed Stories of Lesbian Lives, women at the center of the mid-century lesbian bar culture share their stories. The film's eye-opening accounts are set to a sweet soundtrack of '50s and '60s hits.
