Roy (Max Roeg) and his family live a quiet life on a farm. Here is a blurb for "Dream Boy": Shy teenager Nathan (Stephan Bender) and his family have moved from one town to another trying to escape the domestic disintegration within their own home. Why can't there be more movies like "Shelter" or "East Side Story" or "Boy Culture" or "Long Term Relationship?" What is going on? It opened eyes.īut for God's sake! As long as our movies are about unhappy endings-death by AIDS, gay-bashings, break-ups because "gay men can't find love"-then we are broadcasting the message that that is what "gay" is all about! It got its message across that the two men could have been happy had not the hetero-centered world given the men a chance. Yes, I think "Brokeback" was an important film.
Maybe if you are a self-hating-homophobe! I am so damned tired of It's-Okay-To-Make-A-Gay-Movie-As-Long-As-Someone-Dies! What the hell is going on? Beautifully photographed, great acting and one of the most faithful adaptations of a story to the screen since Brokeback Mountain.
GOOD GAY MOVIES LIKE SHELTER MOVIE
"Both the book and movie forms of "Dream Boy" are recommendable" and "When I read the book I considered it one of the best I had ever read and I can say the same for the film. I looked at Amazon and there were nice reviews with comments like. I found this on one of those lists of gay movies you should see. So before you even think about renting or streaming this movie.DON'T!
