Cabaret

 

Director: Bob Fosse

USA : 1972 : 124 minutes: Musical bisexual:

With : Liza Minelli as Sally Bowles, Joel Grey as the Master of Ceremonies, Michael York as Brian Roberts, Helmut Griem as Maximilian von Heune, Fritz Wepper as Fritz Wendel and Marisa Berenson as Natalia Landauer:

 

This is Berlin in the 1930's and the time of anything goes. Sally Bowles is an American singer who works at the KIt-Kat club and lives in Berlin. Then along comes Brian, who is an English teacher and thinks that Berlin is the place to be something he can't in England. He meets Sally and moves into her boarding house, sharing some rooms. They are very opposites but some how match. They fall (sort of) in love, but then along comes Helmut who is rich, handsome and fun loving. He takes advantage of both of them and seduces then separately. Sally gets pregnant, and Brian offers to marry her but she decides not to have the baby and the relationship slowly ends. All the time in the back ground are glimpses Germany being taken over by the Nazis. Joel Grey is wonderful at the master of ceremonies .

 

Note: this story was originally filmed as " I Am a Camera" in 1955. It's different and all is implied rather than shown but still worth a look In this version you will hear the famous lines from Brian and Sally who are having a fight:

Brian: Fuck Maximilian!

Sally: I did.

Brian: So did I.

Cage Aux Folles III, La

AKA : Cage aux Folles 3: Wedding)

Director : George Lautner

France: 1986: 87 minutes : Gay : Transvestite : Comedy : longtime gay relationship :

With : Michel Serrault  as Albin/"Zaza", Ugo Tognazzi as Renato:

Thank god they didn't make a part 4. This one is really bad and doesn't seem to go with the other two films - can it be because there is a new director ? Or can it be because the subject was good for two films and that's all. In this one you are to believe that Albin has to get married and father a son within 18 months, if he is to inherit the family fortune which he needs to save his and Renato's nightclub.

Note: Just keep your fingers crossed that they don't remake this one as even Albin can't save it. Only for hard core "La Cage Folles" fans.

The camp produced a new work every two weeks and the kids have work hard to keep up the pace. Most of them do not fit into the norm at home but here they seem to fit. The main character is Michael who likes to dress as a woman and goes to his High School prom dress as such and get beat up by the other guy but at this camp he is fully accepted and allowed to be himself. There is also a very handsome boy called Vlad and he will do just about anything with anyone to be accepted and make the other person happy. Will Vlad make Michael also happy – see this film filled with musical numbers and problems - which have to be solved in one summer. I liked this film a lot and the range of different characters made it especially interesting but most of all I liked Michael…

CAPTURING THE FRIEDMANS
Director: Andrew Jarecki
USA, 2003: 107 mins:

Probably this is the best documentary ever been made over pedophile case in the United States. Based on a true case in Long-Neck neighborhood in Long Island USA, Capturing The Friedmans shows us the footage of interviews, gripping true events from family handy-cam movies, documents and emotional story about a wonderful and educated family who has been torned apart by accusations of child molestation. Arnold is a father of three children. He is a computer teacher and a pedophile. He was accused of having tons of child pornographic magazines that he ordered from Europe, but most of all: he was suspected of doing sexual molestation towards his students during the lesson (mostly young boys), and committing orgies in his class room together with one of his sons. Both were sentenced to prison, but the question remains the same: Did Arnold Friedmans and his son abuse these childrens, as no enough evidence have been founded except testimonies of the students which are contradictive to each other? This is a must see documentary, because it is non-judgemental, and considered by a lot of people to be a very controversial movie and events that has really happened!

This is our history as seen in the movies. It should be seen as it has been a long struggle to finally get movies who show us in the way we really are in all our diversity and not as, strange effeminate people who live in the dark waiting to seduce people, wear woman's clothes all the time and kill ourselves as we were supposed to do. As you view the older films you will see we have moved light years ahead. ___________________________________________________________________________________________

Chachi 420
Director: Kamal Hassan
India : 1998 : 159 mins :

With: Kamal Hassan as Jaiprakash Paswan/Laxmi Godbhole; Tabu as Janki Paswan; Johnny Walker as Joseph; Om Puri as Banwarilal Pandey; Amrish Puri as Durgaprasad Bhardwaj; Paresh Rawal as Hariharan 'Haribhai'; Ayesha Jhulka as Ratna

The English meaning of Chachi is Aunty and '420' is a number used in India to indicate that someone is a dubious character.

This movie is inspired by the Hollywood film Mrs Doubtfire, but it's in true Indian style with a Bollywood flavour.  The film starts with a typical Bollywood story that a poor dance choreographer Jayaprakash Paswan (Kamal Haasan) falls in love with Janki (Tabu), who is the only daughter of millionaire Durgaprasad (Amrish Puri).  Even though Durgaprasad was not in favour of their marriage, they got married against his wishes.  After a few years they started to have marital problems due to their differing backgrounds.  They eventually got divorced and Janki is given custody of their daughter Bharati.  After losing visiting rights to Bharati, Jayaprakash decides to take the job of baby sitting at Durgaprasad's home in order to see his daughter.  So using the help of his friend, movie make-up man Joseph (Johnny Walker) who transforms him into a woman, Mrs Lakshmi Godbole, Mrs Godbole wins everybody's heart.  Durgaprasad even wishes to marry Mrs Godbole.  Jayaprakash's landlord Haribhai (Paresh Rawal) also wishes to marry Mrs Godbole and it creates a lot of confusion and fun.  Eventually Janki realises her mistake and goes back to Jayaprakash who she really loves.

Very good performances by main actors and a lot of laughs – that's the main attraction of this movie.

A.K.A.: Les Temps qui changent

Director: André Téchiné

France: 2004, 100 mins:in French with English subtitles

With: Catherine Deneuve, Gérard Depardieu, Gilbert Melki, Malik Zidi:

This French film is basically about two lovers who meet 30 later with one of them hoping to make the relationship work this time.

The reason this film is listed here (other than the great performances by Catherine Deneuve and Gérard Depardieu) is that Sami (played by Malik Zidi) is the bisexual son who has a girlfriend and a young son but to top that off he has a Moroccan boyfriend called Bilal.When he and his family are about to leave he buys Bilal a ticket so he can come to Paris. If you keep your eyes open and look closely there is a frontal nude scene between the two men.

Note: There are so few films about bisexual people that I am always happy to review the films when they DO come out. So have a peek at this really good film. ___________________________________________________________________________________________

With: Ben Affleck, Joey Lauren Adams, Jason Lee

Affleck plays a cartoonist who falls in love with a girl he meets in a cafe. Turns out she's not also a fellow cartoonist, but a lesbian too! What will he do about it? What CAN he do about it?

Ben also has a very close male friend who probably loves him without knowing it.The third movie Smith wrote with a New Jersey background and it's a semi-classic.The dilemma of loving someone who can't love you back is treated in an adult way and not just as an excuse for cheap laughs. Watch out for the solution Ben comes up with for keeping all three of them together! Great scenes from a gay club and real, intimate performances all the way. Watch this!

I watch it till the end and nothing really happens in the film. It is about a guy who since childhood picks pockets and let men have sex with him for money. He then meet a strange woman who helps him out after one of the guys he steals from beats him up. He sort of falls in loves with her but no sex!.. She meet a guy who moves in with them as the woman's lover. yep you guessed the two men have sex... and the rest of the time they just live there bland disco lives. Well don't take my review as the final word -see it for yourself !

This short is made in the "South Park" cut and paste animated style, and made the whole audience laugh out loud at the Oslo Queer-film festival! The story about Chris and Gordy is a satire on the life of George Bush, including his earlier rowdy days and his conversion to fundamentalist Christian views. However, the ending takes everyone by surprise!

Citizen Cohn

Director : Frank Pierson

USA : 1992 : TV : Action Drama aids communism gay mccarthyism :

With : James Woods as Roy Marcus Cohn, Pat Hingle as Hoover and Joe Don Baker as Senator Joseph McCarthy:

This is a very hard film to watch. It is a film about a gay person who somehow manages to destroy other gay people without a bit of remorse, along with many other people. Roy Cohn only wants to get ahead in his career by attaching himself to Wisconsin Senator Joseph McCarthy, as his Chief Counsel in the late 1950's - the time when America was afraid of the Communists and seemed to see everyone different as a Communist. Through this horrible man, many people suffered but in the end he died of AIDS - alone and old - in a New York hospital. This is a good "made for TV" film which deals with America's past but is still horrible to see how a person can sell himself to "the" devil not never care for other lives - gay or straight - that he destroyed.

Director: Adrian Shergold

With: Tom Beard: as Roger Hopkirk, James Bellamyas the Black Youth 2, Robin Berry as the Man in Toilet 2, Rachael Blake as Belinda Hopkirk, Samantha Bond as Marion Rowan, Stuart Bunce as Gavin, Philip Childs as the Newscaster, Richard Freeman as the Registrar, Rupert Graves as Robin Cape, Stephen Hagan as the TV Assistant, Jefferson Hall as the Mail Man, Johnny Harris as theTough Man, Francis Lee as Murray, David Leon as Alfie, Richard Lintern as Will:

This is a 2007 made for English TV film and a very interesting film.. I have just finished watching it and wanted to let you know about it.

There are so many gay men in this story with so much happening to them it is almost impossible to write this review but I will try ( if you check out the list of actors in the film you will see what I mean):

If it had been shown as a weekly soap I can honestly tell you I would have turned in each week for see what was happening but I was spared that and luckily It was shown in one go – good decision !

On the bad side was a guy who picks up a trick and then beats him to a bloody pulp – this part i really disliked although i know it does happen in real life ...Plus a second rough sex scene in a toilette and two thugs who want to beat up the waiter. These story lines are not my style or taste but the director and writer seem to want to show the full spectrum of gay life Anyway i just fast forwarded these to get over the scenes fast !unless you like blood violent story lines.

I remember also a film called Cruising which had one guy killing a lot of gay men. I thought we were over that but i guess not.

There is a gay marriage (and a cruise on a waiter from one of the grooms!!!) There is also the feeling that the writer wants to say that ALL of us cruise for sex in strange places and violence is what we get for it.

I think the violence side should have been played down and more of the positive side of the story should have been shown but that is my thoughts and you will just have to see the film to decide for yourself !

Clay Farmers

Director: A.P. Gonzalez

Writer: Michael Moore

USA: 1988: 60 mins:

With: Nicholas Rempel as Mike and Todd Fraser as Dan:

This film had all the ingredients to be a really good film. The young guys are great to look at and the story that one of them is an outsider in a small community left open a lot of conflicts.

Instead the two young guys (who work on a farm in California) are very happy together but NOTHING happens between them. You have to rewrite the story line in your mind to get a real relationship out of this. Although they spend all their spare time together and swim in the nude together a relationship is not really established. Plus towards the end they seem to be planning a move away from the town – together ...

There is child abuse by a father and the oyung son reaches out to the two guys putting them in a very bad position as the father hates one of the guy (you are lead to suspect that it is because he is either an outsider or thought to be gay).

Anyway the one guy leaves and his friend is all alone and you never got to know their true story or if they were really in love.

The film is 60 mins so worth a see if only for the good looking “maybe” lovers.

France

With: Marc (Gilbert Melki), Béatrix (Valeria Bruni Tedeschi), Laura (Sabrina Seyvecou), Charly (Romain Torres), Martin (Edouard Collin), Mathieu (Jacques Bonnaffé), Didier (Jean-Marc Barr):

I watched this French film the other day and really liked it. To sum it up it is the story of a family on vacation at a family house on the French Riviera and revolved around who is gay and who is not.

The family consists of Marc and Béatrix and their two children Laura and Charly. Charly has invited his gay friend Martin to come stay with them causing his mother to try and get her son out of the closet and the relationship between the two boys into the open.

Yes Martin has the hots for Charly but does Charly have the hots for Martin.Charly goes crusing to see if he is really gay (as everyone thinks he is) and then the film takes on new twists as the guy who picks him up is an „old“ friend of his fathers...

Anyway it is a comedy filled with twists and in the end a totally new situation takes place. You want a fun film filled with funny „is he gay or not´s „ then see this film ! Only the French can make this type of comedy work ! I think the English version is now out but I saw the French version.

 

Note: The really clever & fun site for the film is: www.cocklesandmuscles.com

Cold Lands, The 

(orig. title Les Terres froides)

France 2001

Directed by Sebastien Lifshitz

Djamel is a good-looking young French Arab living in Paris. His mother dies, and he goes searching for his lost father, who is a rich factory owner in Grenoble. The father rejects Djamel, and claims his mother was a whore who slept with many men. But Djamel won't give up. Will he get his father to accept him?

This isn't really a gay film, but a study of a determined young man using his sex and his charm to get what he wants. The gay stuff doesn't kick in until about 15 minutes before the end. Before that, it's kinda depressing and you sense it isn't going to get better. The ending is very interesting, even shocking, but stops in mid-air. You have to figure out the rest for yourself. Like in his first movie, Presque rien, Lifshits plays with chronology and likes to cut off his scenes in the middle. If you're happy with that, this is for you.

This is my friend Tommy´s favorite film and he made me watch it :-) and much to my surprise I liked the film a lot... It is the story of a small town in Texas and a cafe located there. In the cafe was a group of young girls (and one young guy who seems strange to the towns people and gets raped by a man in public). What binds them together is a James Dean Fan Club....Then years later they have a reunion and the young guy comes back as a woman (sex change) played wonderfully by Karen Black. The characters are wonderful and all have their lies and loves and secrets. So the James Dean Fan Club reunites and the fur flies and no one is safe from the truth... A must see film with great cast..

Common Ground

USA, 2000, 90 minutes.

Directed by Donna Deitch

Written by : Writers: Paula Vogel, Paula Vogel and Harvey Fierstein

With: Jason Priestley, Steven Weber, Jonathan Taylor Thomas, Helen Shaver,

Margot Kidder, Harvey Fierstein, Beau Bridges, Ed Asner, Brian Kerwin, Dan Lauria, James LeGros, Mimi Rogers and Brittany Murphy:

I have just watch this made for Showtime film and it took my breath away. It is three separate story woven together by the fact that they take place in small town in New England in the USA. It takes place over three generations.

1st part starts out with the story of a young girl who goes into the military and ends up becoming friendly with a group of gay men (friends of Dorothy) amongst which is a solider played by Jason Priestley. He befriends her and takes her to her first gay bar. Unhappily for her, she gets her first kiss by a woman and then the bar is raided by the police. In the end she get discharged by the military and must go home to her small town with a discharge for sexual reasons. The whole town turns against her (including her Mother) and she must leave for NYC - where she can live her life as she wants.

2nd part is about a young boy and his coming out in this small town. He is on the swim team and is harassed and beaten by the other boys since he is different. He turns to his French teacher for help and understanding but the teacher is a closet case and doesn't help him much ! The story is handled with truthfulness and is a must be seen !!

3rd part is the same town but this time is in the third generation and is about the "marriage" of two men who live there. The path has been made way for them by the previous teacher who rather than leave the town has stayed on with his lover. So the town is more open to the "marriage" except a few war veterans! Harvey Fierstein plays in this one as well as having written it and does a wonderful job as the sissy and his one liners will keep you laughing !

 

Note: this is a wonderful film and I loved it ! by the way it is directed by the woman who gave us " Desert Hearts "

He knows what he wants and seduces Martin, who is older and one of his father's inmates. They start a relationship and try to build a life together after Martin is released but as life is, no one will let them alone and they try in every way to stop this relationship.!

Conspiracy of Silence

 

Director / Writer: John Deery

UK: 90 mins:

Surprise surprise – this film is trying to expose that there are gays in the Catholic church who are priests. Well after seeing so many films about the subject this is NO surprise to me. So the film has NO shock value so this is just another film about gays and students and what they do together (which I knew already). Yes there is witch hunting, HIV and even a shower scene. The only new item is Daniel (played by Jonathan Frobes) who is a straight and gets expelled after another guy makes a pass at him. Film is very darkly lit and in some horror films this is good but I would have like to see more of what was happening on the screen.

Cowboy Forever

Director / Writer: Jean Baptiste Erreca

France:: 2006: 118 mins:

Very nicely filmed story of a young cowboy who discovers that he has feelings for the new guy guy on the ranch. He gets very close to him but does not really know what it is all about until his new friend takes him into town to meet with another friend of his. The friend turns out to be the organizer of the local gay group, where as the other guy is only looking for a woman to sleep with and not a man.

There is a party and for the first time in his life he meets gay men, lesbians and transvestites. He has a very cute gay guy who is after him and although you do not see it the next day it is hinted that he has slept with the guy although he says he does not remember, He slowly realizes what his friendship with the other guy is about and seems to accept it.

A short time later the new guy is leaving to work somewhere else but they swear to lifelong friendship but only platonic.

The film continues and shows them meeting later on and they go for a swim and i of course thought finally they would get together but the camera focus on another guy who is certainly gay and during the ending credits the cowboy and this guy are holding each other in the water and the cowboy is playing with the gays swim suit (if you know what i mean).

The film is filmed in French but the voice over is in English and when there is no voice over there are English subtitles (with dialog in Portages). Since I saw the English version I do not know what the French version is like.

A quite nice shorter film and certainly worth watch ! I hope the director makes another film but this time full length. The film is of very good quality and Andrey's a very interesting story. The shower scene is quite exotic as is the swimming scenes.

Sorry I have not found a poster picture of the film yet .

Cruising

Director: William Friedkin

USA : 1980 :

With: Al Pacino as Steve Burns, Paul Sorvino as Captain Edelson, Karen Allen as Nancy, Richard Cox as Stuart Richards, and Don Scardino as Ted Bailey:

This is about a serial killer who preys on several gay men in San Francisco's S&M and Leather districts. He slays and dismembers them. The police come up with a plan to use Steve Burns who is a hunky young police officer as a decoy to lure the serial killer on himself. He goes undercover as he fits the victims' profiles: dark hair, dark complexion, dark eyes plus uses mascara to complete the look . He is on his own doing this with only contact with the police when necessary. He must quickly learn how to dress, talk and the rules /signs of being an S&M - Leather guy. Since he is from his girlfriend Nancy this lifestyle starts to change him as he tries to find the killer. By the way, you wouldn't want to pick up the killer, he's too dangerous.

Note: This film was picketed by gays who were against showing violence against gays as they were afraid of a back lash from real/ copy killers and other who were against gay. It was also one of the first Hollywood films to "really" show the S&M - leather bars in their full glory.

As Valmont starts talking to the shocked guy and telling him what he wants the gay lies in bed and files his finger nails while making remarks to them both. Much fun and the film is good too… but a little nasty.
