My favorite gay movies
« on: September 25, 2007, 11:52:29 am »
I thought I'd start up this thread.

I'm excluding BBM as it's my obvious favorite

No partiular order.

1) EDGE OF SEVENTEEN

2) ANGELS IN AMERICA (a mini series, I know)

3) MAURICE

4) BROKEN HEARTS CLUB

5) PARTING GLANCES

6) ANOTHER COUNTRY

7) LONGTIME COMPANIONS

8) My Beautiful Laundrette

9) CONSENTING ADULT (ABC made for TV movie, groundbreaking at the time)

10) LOVE AND DEATH ON LONG ISLAND

11) BIG EDEN

12) BURNT MONEY

13) GODS AND MONSTERS

14) WILDE

15) STRAIGHT-JACKET.  (What would have happened if Rock Hudson type actor had been outed in the 1950's. It's a comedy-drama)

16)  I've enjoyed the BOY's LIFE & BOY's SHORTseries  and many other films  (never put on DVD) I've seen at G/L festivals.

I wish I could include some foreign gay movies, but with the exception of BURNT MONEY, I've having a hard time coming up with any. I know many have been made.

Yossi & Jagger
Big Eden
My Beautiful Laundrette
Velvet Goldmine
Queer As Folk
Tales Of The City (from the first book)
Latter Days
Walk On Water (not as gay as it should have been)

I"ll leave BBM off the list for obvious reasons also!  :)

I'm sure I'm missing something.
