I really enjoyed Summer of 85' as well. Benjamin "David" Voison can also be seen playing sweet, sympathetic rent boy Jean (a very revealing performance) in Rupert Everett's The Happy Prince, his 'labor of love' that picks up where Wilde leaves off. A glimpse of Oscar Wilde's life in France...

I am still positively flummoxed by this one. I usually detest movies like this (if you know, you know, is all I can say) and, by all accounts, this should not have remotely worked as well as it did. Yet there I was (and there I remain) devastated and bawling like a baby over it. I don't get...

But all we got in that one was Michael York in his underpants. (Not that I'm complaining, mind you, they were some mighty nice underpants!)

Sure it does, it's a story of unrequited love! :)

I just saw this and I am absolutely gutted. What a marvelous, devastating movie this is. I haven't finished processing it all as yet. Tremendous, indeed.

To add on to what Mark wrote about new or upcoming queer treats, I'm absolutely obsessed with Emerald (A Promising Young Woman) Fennell's new film, Saltburn. It will NOT be to everyone's taste, in fact it may me one of the most depraved things I've seen in recent memory. It's already proving...

I hate to be negative but I thought this one was utterly charmless, and Jonathan Bennett (normally I'm a big fan) plays what has to be the one of the most irritating characters in recent TV memory. The only way he can calm down when he's upset (which feels like every 30 seconds) is if someone...

OH MY GOD!! I love the idea of this! I'm a sucker for historical drama and I've always been obsessed with James I and his string of male favorites. THIS is the delicious story of George Villiers (eventually created 1st Duke of Buckingham by the king in 1623) and his mother, Mary Beaumont (who...

Late to the game, I finally got up the courage to sit through It's a Sin from TWO years ago. Brilliantly acted and gut punching, I'm glad I was finally in the right head space to suspend my strict "no dead gays" rule and appreciate it but, as predicted, it was rather harrowing. Olly was, as...

Bomer and Bailey could read the phonebook together and I'd be there.

sooooooo...... this loos like it's either going to be wonderful or the most awful thing ever. Lukas Gage wrote it so I'm hoping for the best.

They haven't announced it officially but online speculation is that it will arrive sometime around November, same time frame that Season 2 dropped last year. I do know that they wrapped production at the end of June. Seeing as consumers are really going to start feeling the pinch of the...

I was thinking last night that, if I had to pick a disappointment, I'd pick the same one. I absolutely love Rachel Hilson and I think she was wasted.

I never fleshed out exactly what I meant (that's on me) but this is kind of my point. The instance(s) you posted show that he's not instinctively fragile, but becomes so when he's in his own head (which is most every other time.) I wished he would have been aware of the power he actually...

And Joe Locke is rumored to be canoodling with Sebastian (Ben) Croft offscreen. Have these kids learned nothing from the messy backstage drama of the original Gossip Girl?

Oh yes! I had forgotten that was the specific ending and I'll bet you're right!

Wonderful analysis (as always, sir!) I thoroughly enjoyed season 2 although I was getting a little frustrated by Charlie's overwhelming fragility at times. Being in my mid 50's, it's highly possible that I've forgotten some of what it was to be that young and that vulnerable. Overall a very...

I loathe "listicles" more than I can even tell you. They take something subjective and attempt to turn it into something objective that can be reduced a tidy little list. It never works. Who cares what two writers at TimeOut proclaim to be the best, anyway? There's an appeal to authority at...

I've only seen the first two episodes thus far, but it's going down really easily. I agree, it looks like it's going to be a fun ride.

Thanks for the Wolf Pack tip! It's the perfect silly summer thriller. It's TV junk food, to be sure, but it really hits the spot and the eye candy is off the charts. Hot boys and Buffy, who could ask for anything more?

It's interesting, Matt. I saw it opening night in theater and absolutely loved it. I decided to see it a second time when it was streaming and (I have to admit) went completely cold on it the second time around. I don't know what happened but what I found charming and funny just became...

If you're going to watch Cucumber and Banana, it's best to watch them simultaneously by alternating episodes between the two. Cucumber is the main story and then the following (corresponding) episode of Banana usually takes one of the minor characters from the Cucumber episode and puts them...

I love Gimme, Gimme, Gimme! Kathy Burke's Lindy is everything. I was fortunate enough to grab the whole set on R2 DVD years ago and it's long been a favorite.

"Whaaaaaaattt?"

There's an old saying I just made up: "Don't go to McDonald's and expect to find sushi." :lol:

That was Barbara Rhoades, not Jeanne Cooper :lol:. Cooper plays the prostitute (!) who tries to lure Fonda back into bed at the beginning of the movie. She went on to greater prominence on The Young & the Restless for something like 150 years. There are stills that prove the Rhoades scene was...

I don't know what the DVD looks like, but its in HD on HBOMax and looks delicious! (AND you get to see Jeanne "Katherine Chancellor" Cooper's tits!) :lol: EDIT: I thought you wrote DVD in your above post, I didn't realize this WAS on blu-ray!! Thanks for the tip!

It's currently running on HBOMax, if that's any help!

I'm curious to know what you think of that once you see it. I saw it when it aired as a TV Event about five or so years ago. For my part, I found it a little preachy and "finger waggy," like it was intended to educate straight audiences rather than be a story for us to enjoy. That's just me...

Which is funny because, prior to this, Emma Corrin's claim to fame for American audiences was as Diana on season four of The Crown. Poor thing is going to get a complex if she keeps playing characters married to men who would rather be elsewhere!
