I Love You, I Don't (1976)

In a remote roadside restaurant shadowed by a sprawling landfill, Johnny, a petite waitress with a tomboy swagger, serves up cold beers and hearty meals to garbage truck drivers Krassky and Padovan. Sporting short hair and small breasts, Johnny's unconventional allure captures the attention of Krassky, despite the warning from Boris, the sleazy restaurant owner who bestowed her masculine nickname. Boris cautions Johnny about Krassky's homosexual orientation, but the magnetic pull between them is undeniable. They embark on a romantic excursion, their connection deepening despite Krassky's initial difficulty in expressing his passion. However, an unexpected twist in their intimacy emerges when Krassky finds excitement in Johnny's prone form, leading to a sexual relationship as unexpected as it is unconventional. Simultaneously, Padovan, Krassky's long-term partner, watches this unusual bond unfold from the sidelines, his heart filling with a bitter brew of jealousy. As Johnny and Krassky navigate their complex relationship, they remain oblivious to the storm of envy brewing within Padovan, setting the stage for an impending emotional tempest that none of them can predict. "I Love You, I Don't" paints a vivid picture of unconventional love, sexual identity, and jealousy's consuming fire, all set against the backdrop of a truck-stop microcosm where the ordinary meets the extraordinary.
