Shot between 1965-1970, Gay San Francis featur a llectn of credible footage of San Francis's thrivg LGBTQ culture, wh a foc on the Tenrlo, San Francis's first queer neighborhood. Ma s before the legalizatn of gay marriage, before the legalizatn of homosexualy and before the AIDS crisis, this film shows a much more lighthearted, bohemian and unrground gay scene which is now only a memory.

It is difficult to terme to what gree this film was ma to document the gay scene of the late 1960s an unbiased manner and to what gree was meant to mock or mean s nizens.

GAY EROTI

Wh BFI Flare: London LGBTQ+ Film Ftival upon , we ntue our celebratn of queer cema wh a look at some of the bt lbian, gay and trans films om Sndavia and the Nordic untri. Four were among the first natns to legalise gay marriage (Fland took a ltle longer, fally jog the club 2017), and Iceland beme the first untry to have an openly gay head of ernment (Jóhanna Sigurðardóttir, 2009).

Bergman’s pictn of female homosexualy was seldom flatterg – see the predatory lbian  Three Strange Lov (1949) or the possible readg of lbianism lkg to mental illns  Persona (1966). Daddy and the Mcle Amy (1991)The erotic gay drawgs of Too Laaksonen, better known as Tom of Fland, are one of the Sndavian pensula’s most famo queer exports, and this documentary, the only film to feature the man himself, is a handy entry to his work and reer. While the terviews wh New York leather daddi and S&M enthiasts show his fluence on gay inty, ’s the revealg ments of the artist himself that are the ma reason for watchg.

Gay and lbian characters were among the mune dwellers the warm-hearted Together (2000), while the terr monologue of a trans woman was the foc of Contaer (2006), one of his most difficult films. Although the film do not shy away om the ugls of homophobic and transphobic society, the relatnship self is betifully leated, and featur a very touchg sex scene. A Moment the Reeds (2017)Leevi (Janne Puten), a young, gay Fnish man, meets Tareq (Boodi Kabbani), a Syrian immigrant worker employed to rtore the former’s fay lake hoe.

10 GREAT GAY ROMANCE FILMS

The film draws parallels between the close mascule relatnships that form unr the Atralian phenomenon of ‘mathip’ and homosexualy, while talkg heads discs the importance of crimalisg gay sex, which at the time of the documentary was a crimal offence  Atralia. Bond himself was gay, an early bar scene looks like a scene om William Friedk’s S&M thriller Cisg (1980), while is clear that some sort of sexual act, probably a rape, tak place between the teacher and Doc after a vlent stggle, sendg the protagonist to another spiral of spair.

The Clic (1982)In this fun and bawdy bo of scy edy and sex tn aid, we dip to a day the life of a VD clic, where a laid-back doctor (Chris Haywood) and a pdish medil stunt (Simon Burke) tend to patients of all walks of life, om ank sex workers to ashamed hoewiv, om promiscuo gay men to cheatg hbands. Appalled when a motached man the wag room flirts wh him, the stunt’s homophobia be manift the dramatic scene when he realis the doctor, too, is gay, snarlg: “Those men e here and they drop their pants for you.

The Everlastg Secret Fay is one such film, an often homophobic tale of a young man who be termed to climb the social ladr and live the high life when he be the object of sire of a closeted homosexual polician.

MY GAY ROOMMATE MATEN ( 1)

It’s an easy film to mock, and s kky scen of bondage and a (thankfully off-screen) paful-soundg sex act wh a large crab teeter to mp, and suggt the filmmaker’s opn of gay men may not be very high.

But ’s wickedly entertag, Arthur Dignam is excellent as the polician, and ’s a unique film that uld not have been ma at any other time, wh sex scen too graphic for before the 1980s and an anti-gay streak too unpalatable for the 1990s. Filled wh quotable l and gags (not least the monstroly polilly rrect “the only bang you’re ever gonna get” eback that Bernatte serv a homophobic woman), the film was adapted to a hugely succsful mil that toured worldwi. For much of s length, the film feels very post-gay; Isaac (Ewen Llie), our antihero, a moody Greek Atralian who unearths some unpalatable fay secrets when he returns to Greece followg the unexpected ath of his father, is certaly not fed by his homosexualy.

The plot self is a gay staple: Mike (Tristan Barr) velops a csh on William (Lus Lehan), the new boy at school, and the two are assigned to work on a project together, a vio reimagg of Romeo and Juliet.
