'GERONTOPHILIA,' CONTROVERSIAL BCE LABCE FILM, EXPLOR INTERGENERATNAL GAY LOVE
Controversial New Gay Film Explor A 'May-December' Love Affair * gay gerontophile *
It is this unnventnal settg that Lake to accept and explore his sexual inty, both as a gerontophile and as a gay man.
And the actg is acceptable: if Pier-Gabriel Lajoie, as Lake, is a ltle stilted when speakg English he's a lot more natural his (I assume native) French; and Walter Born, as the elrly homosexual, keeps the queens on a subtle, unembarrassg level.
AGEG PREDATORS AND ASEXUAL OLD QUEENS: CHALLENGG STEREOTYP OF CROSS-GENERATNAL GAY RELATNSHIPS BEGNERS AND GERONTOPHILIA
As a gay man who was once urted aggrsively at 50 by a 25-year-old, I n attt to the validy of the subject is what mak this film worthy of an dience. It's great to see this level of filmmakg om Bce LaBce and look forward to more om him, however charmg his gay zombi and anarchists are!
I'd really like to see more om the director and I wouldn't object to a gay or gerontologil theme- -jt not the AND a creepy guy who go way beyond iendship or even love. BECAUSE he's old and ugly, not spe of the fact that he's old and, I'm neher young nor geo myself, and I (and every other old gay man) may have a fantasy jt like that tucked away si of me. Is really believable that a very handsome young gay man would be smten and erotilly motivated by saggg flh, wrkl, fallen posterrs and pot belli?
It's pure fantasy that anythg like this would ever happen the gay muny where youth is treasured and placed on the hight ng of the social ladr. Bee sadly younger gay adult man will barely give the time of day to a guy ten years olr than him, much ls sixty years olr than him.
