Lesbian Gun for Hire

There just aren't enough lesbian assassins in film, so newcomer writer-director Donna Robinson's upcoming The Adventures of Beatle Boyin, the story of a lesbian tow-truck driver and hitman-in-training (or should that be "hitperson"?) who falls in love with a suicidal woman, is eager to fill that gap.

Michele Hicks (Heist, The Shield) stars as Beatle, and the eclectic supporting cast includes Monk star Tony Shalhoub and his wife, actress and filmmaker Brooke Adams; Commander in Chief's Ever Carradine; and, nearest and dearest to Romeo's heart, The L Word's Sarah Shahi, last seen with her heart in a million pieces when she got dumped at the altar in the sapphic Showtime soap's season finale.

Be on the lookout for Beatle, probably at queer film festivals, sometime soon.
