The old story of a man who is a hired killed and given a contract by Russia to kill a very high up government official. Along the way he pretends to be gay, picks up a gay man and then kills him. Didn't we have all these type stories in the 1950´s to the 1960´s where all the gays and lesbian had to be killed or punished ? Oh well, it is a good thriller and so worth a look! Phillip |

Just a regular comedy
until Leslie (played by Alan Mowbray) is on the screen as yet another
effeminate Interior decorator. He is there for laughs but did not help

Jay
and silent Bob strike back
USA 2001
Directed by Kevin
Smith
Starring Jason Mewes, Kevin Smith
Hopeless losers Jay
and silent Bob make their fourth appearance and here they play
the
leads. This time they go to Hollywood to stop their cartoon
characters being turned into action-comedy figures in a blockbuster
movie.
If you can stomach A LOT of childish behavior and
sex-fixated jokes, this is your movie.
It's quite funny. Director
Kevin Smith was heavily criticized by gay rights organizations
because Jay crack gay jokes all the time ("Oh no, that's
sooo gay") and he calls everyone he doesn't like "fagots".
Actually, it's not a homophobic movie. At one point, the two
friends even claim they're gay and married with an adopted kid to get
out of a police-jam! George Carlin has a great line about truckers and it's all in good fun.
Smith was quite shocked when
faced with the criticism and told the press that: "
As I have
a gay brother and several gay friends it's not likely I am
homophobic"! Jay and Bob say these things because they're morons
and idiots.." Yngvar.
Note: Smith put a disclaimer in the end
credits where he stated it was unacceptable to
badmouth gays in
real life. Trouble is, nobody reads end credits do they? :o)

Jeffery
[AKA: Jeffery - It´s Just Sex]
Director: Christopher Ashley
USA : 1995 : 92 Mins. Drama / Comedy gay Aids
With: Steven Weber as Jeffrey, Michael T. Weiss as Steve, Patrick
Stewart as Sterling and Bryan Batt as Darius:
Jeffrey is a young gay man who lives in New York City. He is terrified of sex as he has to always think about AIDS and that makes sex not much fun anymore. He decides to become celibate and wouldn't you know it he meets the man of his dreams at the gym. The big problem is the man of his dreams has AIDS. The thought of catching AIDS and of losing this new man in his life to AIDS is just too much for him and he flips out. He tried to avoid all contact with him and almost loses the man of his dreams. The other characters are also great in this film. The is Patrick Stewart (from Star Trek fame) who plays a wonder friend to Jeffrey and a good lover to his effeminate friend, who is a dancer with AIDS. This film is a must see and part of the new wave of great gay films.
Note: By the way, just in case you think I couldn't do it and in case any of them become famous later on ... Here are the names of the Cater Waiter Dancers: Leroi Freman, Scott Fowler, Christopher Harrison, Sergie A. Trujillo, J. David Elder, Christopher Davis, Richard Amaro and Andreas Niedermeier. Phillip

[AKA : I Love You, I Don't ]
Director: Serge Gainsbourg
France : 1975 Drama gay characters with sex scenes
With: Jane
Birkin as Johnny, Michel Blanc, Joe Dallesandro as Krasky, Jimmy
Davis as Moise, Gérard Depardieu as Rene la Canne, Reinhard
Kolldehoff as Boris and Hugues Quester as Padovan:
Well I knew I would eventually
come to this title and have to write the story line so here goes :
Krassky and Padovan are gay lovers and truck drivers. One day Krassky
comes into a dinner and see (use your imagination - please) a guy
(who is really a slim girl). He suddenly gets hot for Him / Her and
makes a date. She likes him but soon discovers the only way to get
him is to dress and act like a boy. When she wears a dress - he
doesn't like her ( I wonder why !) He of course wants only anal sex -
which she finds hard and each time screams (no comment), meanwhile
Padovan is getting very jealous and upset. So see the film to see
what happens.
Note: If you like Joe Dallesandro - watch this film
as he looks sexy and a slimmer Gérard Depardieu is also in
this interesting film. Phillip

This film suggests that three gay men were in some degree involved with the assassination of JFK. In this one three gays get part of the blame. The three gays are: Male hustler - Willie O´Keefe, a small time criminal - David Ferrie and a Businessman - Clay Shaw. An interesting theory to watch. Phillip |

Jim Loves Jack
Director:
David Adkin
Canada / USA : 1995 : 53 Mins. Documentary gay
With:
Jim Egan and Jack Nesbit:
This is a great documentary about two subjects : the first is a love affair between two men which has lasted 50 years and the second is their fight to have the Canadian government recognize same sex relationships. Jim was already a fighter for gays rights starting in the 1940´s when it was not called Gay but some ugly names. He did this almost single handed. This is a must for all of us to see, after all how many older guys do you know and how many do you know who have had a 50 year relationship. I am sure there is a lot to be learned here from both of them: SEE IT ! Phillip

I liked this film very much as it reveals the truth behind the lives of two men who are L.A. hustlers. One is gay and the other is not but is open to gay sex if it is for a profit. They both seem to need each other and when times get rough they decide to leave L.A. Together. Note: this is a really well written and acted film and the two main characters are very very believable in their roles.

Jubilee
Those who like the gay director Derek Jarman's later films should try this out, an irreverent look at the punk ethic in the late 70ies, in the form of a moral play about good and evil.
The plot: Queen Elisabeth 1. is brought into modern England by magic, and meets all sorts of characters, including punks, deviants and gays living in a sort of commune where they plot the downfall of society..An unpleasant film, with lots of ugliness and murder, but some great satirical points as well.

Cliff Gorman played the effeminate Emery in the Boys in the Band so logically he was type cast as just that in this film where he once again plays a nasty effeminate gay who gets killed by the guy he is after at a party. The rest of the story is about a woman who likes to seduce men and helps the Palestinian Jews revolt against the English rule ... Yes Yes - a gay fits perfect in this story -you decide ! Phillip |

This is the typical drag movie but a laugh can be found. It is the story Chris who is bullies by a gang. When he finds out he is going to be transferred to the same school, he decides to get in drag to avoid the problem. He decides to try out the drag on the first day of school and since some of his new teachers meet him as a girl, he is force to go through with it. He soon finds out that there are advantages to being a girl. Of course there is a girl as in most drag films and the girl in this one is Marie who is a cheerleader. So Chris sets out to become the very best cheerleader so he can be by Marie. Then the problems start when the coach notices that he likes to LOOK a lot !!! Note: These type of films were fun for gays when there were not enough really out gay films being made but now there are so many good ones I suspect that this type of drag picture (where no one is gay) will fade out and real stories about transvestites w ill be made in there place. I am gay and want to see real gay people up there on the screen don't you ? Phillip |

Just Like a Woman 
UK
: 1992: Comedy Drama transvestitism
Director: Christopher Monger
With: Paul Freeman as Miles Millichamp, Togo Igawa as Akira
Watanabe, Gordon Kennedy as C.J, Adrian Pasdar as Gerald, Ian Redford
as Tom Braxton, Shelley Thompson as Eleanor Tilson and Julie Walters
as Monica:
This is the type of film I was talking about and although Gerald is not gay, he is a real transvestite, and thus the story becomes interesting to me. He is a man in his thirties , has a wife and is a transvestite. He has never told her and one day (of course) she finds him dressed as a woman, this is too much for her and she throws him out (thinking I think that he is gay !). He finds a room to rent and meets Monica who is the landlady (isn't it funny how Landladies always come in handy in films ?). She discovers that Gerlad is a transvestite and slowly gets used to it and in the end supports him. They are lovers after all and she has to accept it to continue. The film is not for laugh and is a serious try to show us what this life is really like. This is the type of drag film we want not drag for laughs (with the exception of a few really good films who make us like the person doing drag). Phillip
