If These Walls Could Talk 2 is an Emmy Award-winning 2000 television movie in the United States, broadcast on HBO. It follows three lesbian stories in three different time periods. As with the original If These Walls Could Talk, all the stories are set in the same house. The film is similar to the film Common Ground (2000).
The first segment is set in 1961, and stars Vanessa Redgrave as Edith Tree. It concerns the death of Tree's lover (Abby Hedley, played by Marian Seldes) and soulmate, and Tree's exclusion from subsequent "family" matters.
The second segment, featuring Chloë Sevigny and Michelle Williams is set in 1971, and involves bitter divisions in the feminist movement at the time.
The third segment is set in the "present-day" (2000), is more light-hearted, and features Sharon Stone and Ellen DeGeneres as a lesbian couple trying for a baby.
The segments were directed by Jane Anderson, Martha Coolidge, and Anne Heche respectively.
