7. The Bubble (2006)

Don't know who Ivri Lider is??? Not yet? Well don't worry Eytan Fox manages to drag out his favorite actor and musician for this film as well.

The good news is that the story if far more complex and the characters more developed... oh and I cried like a baby at the end... LOL

11. Edward II (1991)

Derek Jarman puts to screen the Christopher Marlowe play mixing contemporary and classical images. Staring Tilda Swinton with Annie Lennox appearing on the soundtrack in one of the most heartbreaking tender scenes.

18. Love & Human Remains (1993)

A 90's film that is the essence of the 80's. So, in that regard it is a bit of a 'guilty pleasure' film. Still, a serial killer, a psychic dominatrix and a dashing gay lead... it really is hard for this film to go wrong.

22. Poison (1991)

Todd Haynes directs this surreal nonlinear film of three overlapping stories based on the writings of Jean Genet. This is a bleak and uncomfortable film.

This is a rather short movie that runs more like an extended Ivri Lider music video... that didn't stop me from crying like a baby and enjoying every moment.

I'm rather curious about your opinion on the movies in the "Group Favorites"

jaytoast

Posted: 2 years, 6 months ago at Oct 22 15:31

There are a few in there that I could swear that I love but can't remember why. I'm slowly adding to this list and might put in an additional section "Group Divide" which would have the films that our group was clearly divided over.

I noticed a few Asian films on the list. Here are a few more that I enjoy: Formula 17 (Taiwan), Boy Meets Boy (Korea), Lady Daddy (Korea), and Like A Virgin (Korea).

Nice list. "Love & Human Remains" is an awesome movie. You should check out "No Night is Too Long" if you haven't already. "Relax... it's Just Sex" is good too.

Yay! Thanks for the recommendations. I can now put an official "Listal Recommended Section". I may make a few other changes to the list. I changed the name of 'group favorites' after all it has been a few years since I was part of any other off site film group.

I know i posted a thing on this already but have you seen the movie.' pornography a thriller'? its rather boring in a sorta paranomal activity type of way but the ending slightly predictable perhaps not... i still kept myself watching just to make it though, it's one of those intresting mind fuck things.

@SpikeEnigmaSlash God, no please feel free to make as many recommendations or comments as you want! I always really appreciate them.

I had "Pornography: A Thriller" in my queue for quite some time but think it got removed. I had watched about 3 gay themed film that were so horribly.... horribly... bad that I really need to take a break. Now, I wish I could remember the films... so I could warn others. Well, at least I have rental history online.

HOWEVER, I will check out the film. I think "Big Eden" is the only other GLBT film I have lined up for March so might watch it soon

But it is added to the list until then :)
