Continuing with my daily Tribute to Lesbians in Video, today I'm going to give you two different shows. Both are based on truth & both are about the socialite & author Vita Sackville-West. In VITA & VIRGINIA, 2018, it's the story of her love affair with literary icon Virginia Woolf. In PORTRAIT OF A MARRIAGE, 1990, a PBS mini-series it is her love affair with the novelist Violet Keppel, against the backdrop of post-WWI England & concerning her politician husband Harold Nicholson & their exposure to society & his opposition to her affairs. Vita & Violet had an obsessive relationship where possessiveness & jealousy was a major factor and grew in intensity. Janet McAteer is in this one.
