Love, Valor, and Compassion- A group of middle age gay friends with AIDS come to a summer house in every year to spend the last of their days together. That was pretty good.

But I'm a Cheerleader- Satire. This girl who her friends and family think have "homosexual tendecies" is sent to a camp that's supposed to make her straight...which doesn't work....That was pretty good...

Twilight of the Gold( i think...can't remember...) Two parents find out their child is gay and debate on whether or not to carry out the pregnancy.

Beautiful Thing- Another coming of age young gay boy story. In English. Not American english, England english.

Bound- With Gina Gershon and Jennifer Tilly. The wife of a mob boss falls in love with a female theif planning to steal from her husband. THAT was a good ass movie.

Damn. There's a whole bunch more i've seen but i really can't remember them right now, but you've probably seen a couple if not all of those.

Seabiscuit.

The Sum of Us. Yesssss!!!!

The relationship between Russel Crowe's character and his father in that movie is the same between me and my dad.

My dad always asks me if I have a boyfriend yet. He doesn't like me being alone.

What's scary is that all of the movies everyone is mentioning I have on either DVD or VHS.

One of my guilty pleasures is THE BROKENHEARTS CLUB. I love the part where Dean Cain, who is always the dumper, is dumped by Michael Bergin. Billy Porter is really funny in this movie. It's very Hollywood and predictable but I enjoy it.

A plus for me was that they included a song by a very underrated songstress, Cree Summer.

Loved these:

Parting Glances
Torch SOng Trilogy
Longtime Companion
Boys don't cry


I'd add DESERT HEARTS - early Lesbian film, very good. I agree with Bound, I want Gina to top me. I really enjoyed BEAUTIFUL THING, I'm an anglophile. And all I have to say about BUT I'M A CHEERLEADER is EDDIE CIBRIAN. He is my number 1. He can do whatever he wants to me. The scene where he's in shorts doing yard work and flirting with RU-PAUL(out of drag) from afar. WHAT!!!!! When I saw that part I thought I was going to lose my damn mind.

Parting Glances was the first really good gay themed movie I saw. I was young when I saw it. It really gave me hope.


I'm still looking for that perfect gay movie. I want them to make THE DREYFUSS AFFAIR already damn-it. I hope they don't fuck BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN up.

I completely forgot about Bareback Mountain!! I am SO waiting to see that!!

I saw THE BOYS IN THE BAND. It's pretty good. GAY DRAMA TO THE TENTH POWER. There's this queen on there that makes me laugh. Everytime he hears something that he doesn't like he says "TURNING". It's kind of his way of reading someone and snapping their fingers at them at the same time. It makes me laugh.

OMG! There was a running "joke" in our theatre at school with "turning". Taking me back, here!

What about the movie Maurice? I think it was an Irish film..

Yes, I loved Maurice. That was with Hugh Grant and I forget the other guy's name. I fell in love with the character Scudder. The actors name is Rupert Graves. I get my British Ruperts mixed up, I think that's his name. It was a very romantic movie.

Almodovar is one of my favorites. He's up there with WATERS and ARAKI. ARAKI did a movie called TOTALLY FUCKED UP and NOWHERE, both had gay themes in them. And who can forget THE LIVING END.

Did anyone see ALL ABOUT THE GUY? That's another pretty good funny gay movie about dating and self loathing.

Greg Araki YES totally fucked up and nowhere were ok...but my favorite was Doom Generation...which is in the middle of those. I never saw the living end ( or have I)
