"The Sum of Us" was a very good movie. And, being the older man that I am, I liked Jack Thompson who played the gay man's father who tried to be a matchmaker for his gay son. Visually speaking, Thompson is my kind of sexy man. That movie is also about homophobia in society, too.
When "Cruising" was shown here in Tulsa, I was in the closet and it was shown at a theater in local large strip mall shopping center. A reporter with a camera from a local TV station was interviewing people who had gone to see it the afternoon I went. While I was not interviewed, I did appear on camera just long enough to be recognized by those who might have recognized me. But, since the entrance to the lobby was in a breezeway which led to more stores on the other side, if asked by someone who knew me, I could have lied and said that I merely walked past the theater. I went to see the movie because of the local publicity. I am not into the leather scene at all.
