For A Lost Soldier from Ventura Distribution Price: $26.99 Customer Review: 'For A Lost Soldier' is one film which I have watched several times! It deals with a volatile topic, the story of a very young boy who finds love in the arms of a young Canadian soldier in World War II. Since the story is based on an autobiographical book, it is not the whimsy of a script writer but... |

Head On from Strand Releasing Home Video Price: $26.99 Customer Review: When Australia tackle a movie subject such as homesexuality they either totally miss the plot, as in "The Sum of Us" or make a film that sets the benchmark for all others to follow. Head On falls into the later.Alex Dimitraides performance is brilliant as the Young Gay son of Greek imigrants that... |

Borstal Boy from Strand Releasing Home Video Price: $26.99 Customer Review:  I was all ready to love this movie. I've been a fan of Shawn Hatosy since his debut role in "In and Out", and I thought he did a great job in the litle-seen "Outside Providence". In fact Shawn does a great job playing the lead in this movie, as 16 year old Brendan Behan, the Irish drinker with a... |

Beefcake from Strand Releasing Home Video Price: $31.49 Customer Review: The most frustrating thing about this film is the lackadaisical way it moves back and forth between engaging interviews and authentic 50s/60s film footage and the silly, flacid narrative about a physique magazine photographer who involves his unwitting (?) family in the creation of benign... |

Murder In Portland Price: $29.95 Customer Review: Reviewer: Miles Fusco (see more about me) from NEW YORK, NY USA All three of RAF's films take place in Olympia, WA. I watched "Murder" first and then, in a single afternoon, the first two as well. Their formula varies little, and includes: unusually cute young men (at least one of whom is... |

Wild Reeds from Fox Lorber Price: $17.98 Customer Review: For cinema buffs, this film is probably Andre Techine's best (although 'Thieves' comes close). Released in 1994, the movie won four Cesar Awards, including Best Picture. That said, it's a great film anyway! Techine incredibly evokes--and captures--the landscape and atmosphere, the tonal integrity,... |

Breaking The Cycle (Gay) from Villiage Lighthouse Price: $29.95 Customer Review:  Quite possibly the worst film I have seen since Disorderlies starring the Fat Boys. The acting is awful, the script could have been written by a 10 year old and the score is so bad that it sounds like it was written on a Casio keyboard from Wal-Mart. There is not even a decent message to take away... |

Midnight Dancers from First Run Features Price: $26.96 Customer Review:  'Midnight Dancers', like the late Lino Brocka's "MACHO DANCER", is a dark, melodramatic portrayal of Philippine's sex industry and the life in a Manila ghetto. The movie is long and at times unbearable. The cinematography style is too 'film noir' which, thankfully, enhanced rather than decreased... |

The Einstein of Sex - Life and Work of Dr. M. Hirschfeld from TLA Releasing Price: $17.99 Customer Review: "The Einstein of Sex" shows the life of Magnus Hirschfeld, a German Jew who helped pioneer the scientific study of sex. Hirschfeld became so famous for his work that he could joke that Einstein might be better known as the Hirschfeld of Physics. After achieving his greatest successes in the 1920s,... |

Gods Of Olympia Price: $29.95 Customer Review: After viewing this film I have to honestly say I now understand why so many gay films cast straight men for the gay roles. The acting in this movie was by far the worst I have ever scene, it was almost sickening at times. In spite of that, I am giving this film 4 stars because of other reasons. I... |

Entre Nous from Fox Lorber Customer Review: The beuty of the film lies in its subtle power to transmit the complexity of when family obligations come in the way of self-fullfilment. The film is based on the true story of the the film maker's mother and was a cathartic process for Kurys, who was very close to her father and mourned his... |

Arabian Nights from Image Entertainment 2 Customer Review: My first experience with Pasolini was his "Salo" movie and it was a mixed experience I am still contemplating. However, "Arabian Nights" was my second outing with this director and I found this film to be an enchanting, atmospheric work of art. This is what the real tales of the Arabian Nights must... |

To Play or To Die from Water Bearer Price: $26.96 Customer Review: What is most surprizing about this short (50 min) film is that it was made in 1991. One would have thought that by then we had gone beyond the 'pre-Maurice' stage of sociological development. E.M. Forster's book could not be published in his lifetime because it's ending did not involve imprisonment... |
