Helen Shaver "We All Fall Down"

Helen Shaver portrays Sherry, a garrulous sex worker on Vancouver's Downtown East Side in Martin Cummins' directorial debut, "We All Fall Down." She won a Genie award for this role.

Martin Cummins sounds like Edward G. Robinson at the very beginning of this clip.

Sorry for the poor image quality of the video. The actual film looks much, much better.

Starship Invasions -- Helen Shaver's Monologue

One of the bright spots in this rather dreadful film is Helen Shaver, who plays the UFO investigator (Robert Vaughn)'s wife. A talented performer who's gone on to do stagework and win two awards for her acting skills, shaver gets a glorious brief monologue off here in a t.v. interview when she laments her lost husband. the lines suck but she delivers them nicely, taking control of the whole tone and pace of the movie for a brief, exquisite moment. then it goes right back to being stupid.

"The Education of Max Bickford" - Erica 1

Helen Shaver portrays Erica Bettis, a transgendered college professor.


"The Education of Max Bickford," aired during the 2001/2002 season on CBS and it starred Richard Dreyfuss as Max, a widowed women's college history professor plowing through a mid-life crisis. One of the challenges facing Max is the fact that his best friend and colleague, Steve, has recently transitioned from a man into a woman. Returning from a sabbatical in the show's pilot, Steve (now going by the name Erica), is ready to feel happy and whole for the first time in her life, but old pal Max needs time to adjust.

This compilation of scenes, taken out of context and strung together as one sequence, may make for awkward viewing, but I wanted to isolate Erica's storyline.

This program marked the first time a transgendered character was featured in a regular, starring role.

Desert Hearts 2-Disc Collector's Edition

The best-selling lesbian title returns with NEVER BEFORE SEEN ADDITIONAL FOOTAGE!

Desert Hearts ranks as the all-time classic lesbian favorite romantic film - and also stands as the top-grossing lesbian-made lesbian feature of all time (drawing $2.4 million at the box office).

Based on Jane Rule's novel "Desert of the Heart," the movie tells the story of Vivian Bell (Helen Shaver), a repressed English professor who goes to Reno for a quickie divorce in 1959. She spends the weeks waiting for her final divorce papers at a dude ranch where she meets Cay Rivvers (Patricia Charbonneau), a beautiful young casino worker.

Cay is a free spirit - an artist by day and casino worker by night, as well as a lesbian. Her surrogate mother Frances (Audra Lindley in an amazing departure from her comic role in "Three's Company") disapproves of her lifestyle, while also craving Cay's affection and attention.

To everyone's surprise, Vivian and Cay hit it off immediately as Cay introduces the shy academic to the wild-west casino scene as well as the breathless beauty of the desert. It's not long before Vivian finds her friendship moving into unexpected passion. And for Cay, it's the first time she has met someone who stirs her deepest emotions.

An original 35mm print of this film has been donated to the Outfest Legacy Project for LGBT Film Preservation at the UCLA Film & Television Archive. The Legacy Project is the first program of its kind in the world.

The Risen

Amanda Knowles (Alberta Watson) is rushed to Emergency. The diagnosis: an ectopic pregnancy that threatens her life. Her husband David (Eugene Lipinski), convinces her to terminate the pregnancy but the operation means Amanda will never be able to have a child of her own.

In the hospital corridor, awaiting surgery, Amanda has a strange encounter with a young boy named Bobby (Daniel Maslany). Bobby tries to pull the sheet covering her body over her head and a priest with a strange birthmark on his face passes them in the hall.

It is an eerie premonition.

On the operating table, Amanda suffers a cardiac arrest and undergoes a near-death experience. When she awakens in the presence of her husband and her sister Lynn (Helen Shaver), she can't remember anything. The doctors diagnose temporary amnesia, caused by the trauma of losing her capacity to have a baby.

Once Amanda arrives home, weird things occur. She has recurring nightmares that include Bobby and the priest. She sees her own funeral, her own burial and at times herself as a walking corpse. Her husband is frustrated and infuriated by her strange behavior. Amanda is afraid to tell David what is happening but eventually confides in her sister.

Amanda sees a psychiatrist who interprets her experiences, as a natural chemical reaction to what she's gone through. Her sister, a believer in the supernatural, pushes Amanda to pursue other explanations. Amanda begins to question her own sanity as the hallucinations become worse. She believes that Bobby is somehow connected to what is happening and becomes obsessed with finding him and, thus, perhaps, the answers to her nightmares.

Amanda breaks into Bobby's home and is caught by his father (Peter Outerbridge) while standing over Bobby's bed staring at him. When Amanda's problems are explained, the recently widowed father does not press charges.

Amanda's behavior becomes even more erratically. She is drawn to the recent grave of Bobby's mother who she discovers died in the same hospital. The cemetery begins to trigger her memories. Knowing she could now never have a child of her own, Amanda looses all will to live. During the surgery, her heart stopped and she died. In a neighboring room, Bobby's mother Kathryn, terminally ill, could not accept parting from Bobby. Her spirit moved through the hospital and found Amanda.

Amanda finally realizes what has happened, and understands the real nature of her connection to Kathryn and Bobby. In the film's tense climax, she takes the first step forward in her new life as The Risen.
