the funny thing is everyone was saying how hollywood went over homophobic issues with this one, but i'd pretty much say gay people like different films..i mean, it was just a cheesy love story but it was hyped because gay topic is unusual for hollywood maybe.

well. for me it wasn't gay topic. it was about very strong friendship that became love and addiction during almost 20 years of their hidden relationship. i suppose many guys have similar expiriences with other guys, but don't consider them "gay" or "homosexual".

Oh come on, it's not about gay people liking different films. If anything, it's about the cultural elite wanting to show us all how very tolerant they are. Yeah it's hypocritical but it shouldn't matter, and I wouldn't let it influence my opinion of the film.

I loved the style of the film, and the story was familiar to me; I've been in love with a man, without the sex however (so it is possible, it's something like comraderie). That was actually the only thing that felt unnatural in the movie, the first sex scene doesn't seem natural. I'm not saying sex would be unnatural in the context of the story, just that the way it was approached seemed rushed and pretty unrealistic. Bareback Mountain, lol

I experienced this also. Also think their first rough love in tent was forced and happened because of alcohol they have been drinking. However after 5 years their kiss in front of Ennis del Mar house was unbelievable. Anyway - I think this kind of relations have lots of contradictions and are never 100% understandable.

My Beautiful Laundrette is a great film! Even 'Gayer' is 'Sebastien' which I love! Eno soundtrack with loads of naked men speaking latin!

Clint Eastwood would roll in his grave.
I remember watching My Beautiful Laundrette when I was a teenager. It is the only 'gay' film I have watched but it was OK.

I watched Sebastiane when Channel 4 used to show arty films, all I recall was some bloke wanking a papier mache phallus and Roman lads froilicking on the beach. It was hardly "Ben Hur". More like "Ohhhh, get her".

I can't but I know exactly that scenario.
She smashed the car into a parking meter the other day and was holding a map upside down like a mirror to where we were going?

Haha!the best bit is when 'Sebastiane' has a shower and there's a some music that really 'glistens'! I can't explain it much more than that! It's like BOC but not trying to be retro. I gave it a go.

I popped round his garden, not his uphill garden, after he died, dear boy, in Dungeness. God, that's a bleak bloody place.
I'll have to give Seb' another go, obviously when NO ONE is in the house, I can't see me explaining it away on artistic grounds, not to my family .... I quite like that "Blue" one he did as well. Well ambient, innit.

yeah, it is very cinematic piece of art. I love cinematography there. Funny thing: "Brokeback..." and "Happy..." were both shot by Asians.
