Last Call at Maud's (1993 film)

Last Call at Maud’s is a 1993 documentary which explores the history of gay women's culture from the 1940s to the 1990s as it records the last evening of Maud's, a San Francisco lesbian bar which closed in 1989 after 23 years in business. The film, directed by Paris Poirier, combines vintage footage with interviews with Maud's owner, Rikki Streicher, its employees, and patrons, including Judy Grahn, Sally Gearhart, Del Martin and Phyllis Lyon.[1][2][3][4]
