“SAYG YOUR NAM” POEM (BY RICHARD SIKEN), FROM THE GAY MOVIE “BETIFUL SOMETHG”
Taiwan Internatnal Queer Film Ftival 2015, Chigo Gay and Lbian Internatnal Film Ftival 2015 - Bt Actor, Ensemble, Framele Film Ftival 2015, Outft Los Angel LGBT Film Ftival 2015. Joseph Graham’s reprentatn of the gay muny Betiful Somethg illtrat the difficulty gettg over someone and fdg new love San Francis.
The film, my opn, produc a pre-nceived image of gay relatnships, pictg a heavy reliance on sex. One thg that I rpect about this film was that batted the notn that all gay relatnships films revolve around “forms of sanctned and unsanctned homophobia” (Halberstam, 19). In Betiful Somethg, there were no trac of homophobia- was all purely based upon the experienc of the characters, on an ternal and personal level.
However, as prevly stated, the film was very sex-driven, and pats the dience a picture of the gay muny’s sexual motif. When watchg Betiful Somethg, is easy to notice how the gay muny is picted as beg very sex driven, and how that fortifi myths that sway one’s perceptn of gay relatnships.
