Talladega
nights – the ballad of Ricky Bobby
One of the funniest movies of the year, and a real kick in the butt to stupid red-necks everywhere. It could have been the cousin of "Dumb and dumber", but the script is too clever for that.
Ricky Bobby is a NASCAR-driver. (NASCARS are race-cars that only do left turns on a closed circuit), He has a simple mind, but a "take-no-prisoners" attitude on the track. His spectacular stunt driving makes him very popular with the crowds. One day Jean Girard, a European Formula 1 champion arrives in the USA ready to challenge Ricky Bobby for the title.
This doesn't sound very gay, but it sure is! From the moment Sacha Baron Cohen enters the picture we're treated to a truckload of gayness, silly jokes and a man to man kiss of epic proportions. The movie was also commercially successful, AND doesn't make fun of gays, a great thing coming from Hollywood.
Note:(The smooch between Cohen and Ferrell made headlines when it won the MTV-award "Best movie kiss of the year".) Yngvar

Tamanna
Director: Mahesh Bhatt
India : 1997 :
With: Pooja Bhatt as Tamanna; Manoj Bajpai as Salim; Paresh Rawal as Tiku; Sharad Kapoor; Akshay Anand
Tamanna means desire/hope. A movie based on a real life-story, about the emotional relationship between a transvestite/Hijra/eunuch Tiku (Paresh Rawal) and his adopted daughter Tamanna (Pooja Bhatt).
Tiku found the baby in a dustbin and adopts her even though his friends were against it. He names her Tamanna but he doesn't tell her about his being an eunuch. He sends her to boarding school and whenever he used to meet her, he used to behave like a man.
Tamanna does not want to stay at boarding school, so she seeks the help of Tiku's friend's son (Sharad Kapoor) who is in love with her. One day Sharad brings Tamanna home from boarding school and on entering the house she finds Tiku dancing in women's clothes. On realising his true identity she starts searching for her real parents. When she meets them she realises the importance of the bond of love between her and Tiku. She now has to face the situation of whether she should go back to her real parent's home or should she stay with Tiku.
This movie portrays the real life story of an eunuch in India, who can't do anything other than begging and dancing in marriage and child birth ceremony. They are considered to be abnormal people and normal people do not associate with them - even the police harass them.
At the same time, eunuchs have their own groups everywhere and they support each-other. Manish

Terence Davies tells the story of his life as a character named Robert Tucker in a 3 part film. Part One (Childhood) is during his childhood at school and his being the weak boy there plus his early sexual awakening. Part Two (Madonna and Child) takes us to his middle age where he is trapped in a boring life. Part Three (Death and Transfiguration), Tucker relives his life - looking at it from the wisdom that he has gained in his life and he finally comes to accept his sexuality. This is worth seeing !!

Ticks
Director: Tony Randel
USA 1993:
From the director who brought you Hellraiser 2 and almost as bloody. 5 teenage kids with personal problems are sent on a summer-camp deep in the California forests. A local marihuana farmer uses some chemicals to spray his crop, which in turn makes the wood-ticks (nasty blood sucking insects) grow to gigantic proportions. 5 minutes later the bodies are everywhere!
This B-movie features a very effeminate gay killer, who minces about something awful. In one scene the killer’s psycho sidekick fondles one of the teen-age boys and says: Hey, feel this! Smooth and soft. Just the way you like 'em, sir!
“Deliverance” anybody?
The special effects are almost as disgusting as that homophobic remark. Ticks will make your skin crawl.

The new movie from the man behind the smash hit "Fucking Åmål". This time he goes back to the 70' s, in a revealing look at people attracted by socialism and communal living. Essentially the story of a failed marriage and its reconciliation, this also presents us with a gay man, a lesbian and a bisexual living and loving in the commune. It's both humorous and witty, and the plot works itself out to everyone's satisfaction. No great shakes, this is a pleasing movie with attitude. Yngvar |

Original title: les Voleurs Now....this is one heck of a complicated movie! Ostensibly a thriller about a gang of car-thieves, this really concerns sexual and emotional relationships between a large number of people. So many that I had a hard time following them all. My tip - watch it at least twice! Catherine Deneuve plays Marie, a lesbian lecturer, who falls in love with a bi-sexual thief, Juliette. Juliette has another affair going with macho police-officer Alex, who is the brother of Ivan, Juliettes employer, who gets shot early on. Juliettes brother, Jimmy, loves......oh I give up!

Gay Private eye Donald Strachey investigates an attempted murder on a gay activist who likes to "out" powerful people on the Internet . It looks like a case of revenge, but turns out to be something completely different..... "Third
man out" explores everything from blackmail, to outing, to
spying, to HIV, to gays in the military, to sexual abuse of minors.

Three Bewildered People In The Night
This was one of the starters in the career of Greg Araki. It is a low budget film and was said to be made for $5,000 but don't expect a bad movie. It is the story of three people who are tying to find out how they really feel about each other. Most of the action takes place in a coffee shop. It held my attention from the beginning till the end ! I knew when I saw this film that Greg Araki would go on to bigger better things and he did.Phillip |

the velvet
(London ca 1890, the age of Oscar Wilde).
There’s a lot happening. The oyster girl works the streets disguised as a boy prostitute and is even introduced into a butch dyke society where leather dildos is the order of the day (you had to wait until the 1920’s for the rubber kind). It’s all very “sophisticated”.
The actors look good. Keely Hawes is gorgeous. Hey, I almost want to go lesbian! What a Botticelli angel she is. Yummy. (just joking, John!!!)
I sat up for three Fridays watching this series, and it was sooo worth it. A near masterpiece based on a popular novel by Sarah Waters.Yngvar

Italy: 1979: 90 Minutes: two gay male
and two lesbian main characters:
With: Erland Josephson,
Mariangela Melato and others:
Ugh this seems like a long film
and I had to try and watch it two times before I finally came to the
end. I normally like all Gay & Lesbian pictures but this is the
story of two couples who come together at a country estate and from
the moment they arrive they talk and talk and talk about getting
older and dying. The title should be called "To Forget going to
Venice we can kill you off here by talking you to death !"

Note: sorry i just do not like this film but of course you
should judge for yourselves if you want to see it.

Well, Outrageous! was simple a wonder film (see my review) and this is the sequel so all that they say about sequels is true. The whole story was told in the Outrageous! and there was not much left for Too Outrageous! except, of course, the good drag numbers. Robin´s relationship with Liza (who is schizophrenic) just goes on and on and on and is really nowhere ! Phillip Note: This is worth a see if you are a fan of Craig Russel. It is rarely seen on TV or in the Video rental story so if you do want to see it you will have to search for it. |
