Cold Case: Forever Blue
sel:
Finally almost two weeks ago it was my turn to watch Forever blue (Italian TV, RAI 2).
I simply fell in love with it. The episode exceeded my expectations, which due to the buzz surrounding it had become very high. It was definitely inspired by BbM. I am hooked! I hope to be able to see the whole episode again, as well as more of the lead actors.
Here's a pic taken on the set:

And a very good interview by AfterElton.com with Shane Johnson ("Coop") about Forever Blue:

I know to most of you this is old stuff. Since watching this episode of Cold Case on TV for the first time I have watched a few clips on Youtube, and felt compelled to come back to this thread. To me Forever Blue is a masterpiece, a small one, nonetheless a masterpiece in its own rights.

It will never be old stuff to me. This was one spectacular show....as you say a masterpiece!!! Thanks for the picture and the interview. I have never seen that picture before. I would have really liked to have seen this transformed into a movie which truly could have been done. Who knows maybe one day it will be. Being gay as a policeman certainly would not have been easy in the 60s and it would not be easy now either. The same goes for firemen. It seems that many of these groups are forgotten since they are so dissimilar from the stereotypical idea that a gay person is an interior decorator, etc. The same of course goes for being a cowboy as was shown in Brokeback. The world really needs to realize all the many places and professions gay people do exist and maybe it would be easier for the general population to accept in the long run.
