Tumbledown Trailer – Todd Verow returns with a complex gay love triangle

June 1, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


Queer cinema director Todd Verow has gained a lot of fans and a fair few detractors with films such as Little Shots Of Happiness, Bad Boy Street, Between Something & Nothing and Vacationland. Now he’s set to return with his latest movie, Tumbledown.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘Inspired by true events, Todd Verow’s ‘Tumbledown’ is an explosive cocktail – an emotional roller-coaster ride through the dark sides of sexuality. A complicated love triangle develops after hunky Jay meets bartender Nick and invites him to spend the weekend with him and his partner in their country cabin. Soon, copious amounts of sex, drugs and alcohol lead to a dark obsession and even darker complications. Always bold and never less than riveting, ‘Tumbledown’ is sure to leave you breathless.’

The film arrives on DVD in the US on July 23rd the UK on August 26th via TLA Releasing. [Read more…]

Aleksandr’s Price Trailer – A gay prostitute’s life spin’s out of control

June 1, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


We’ve covered Aleksandr’s Price before, back when Pau Maso’s film was known as Simple Moves. Now the movie is complete, has changed its name and will arrive on DVD in the US via Breaking Glass Pictures in September (no UK date is known yet).

Here’s the synopsis: ‘Aleksandr’s Price is a psychological drama from director and star Pau Masó. The film follows a young man who is drawn into the dark, sexual underbelly of New York City’s gay club scene.

‘Aleksandr (Masó) is a young Russian immigrant alone after the tragic death of his mother. He turns to drugs and renting his body to wealthy men to deal with his loss. Aleksandr finds himself torn apart with a new personality making its way to the surface.’

Beyond The Walls Trailer – Take a look at the much praised gay-themed flick

May 27, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


While the 2013 Cannes Film Festival has just ended, way back in the mists of time (2012, to be precise), Beyond The Walls (Hors les murs) screened during the Cannes Critics week. Unfortunately though, it’s still to arrive in either the UK (except for the London Lesbian & Gay Film Festival) or US, but we can take a look at the trailer and a clip, and hope it doesn’t take too long to get here.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘Paulo, a young pianist, meets Ilir, a double-bass player originally from Albania. It’s love at first sight. Confronted by Anka, Paulo finds himself out on the street. Despite Ilir’s misgivings, Paulo moves in with him. One day, when Paulo promises that he will love Ilir for the rest of his life, Ilir leaves the city and doesn’t return. A few days later, Paulo finds out that Ilir is in jail, and the two lovers embark on an heart-breaking relationship.’

David Lambert’s first feature is for fans of recent gay classics like Weekend and Keep The Lights On, and looks like it’ll be well worth watching. A US DVD & VoD release on August 26th has been announced. [Read more…]

L’Inconnu du lac (Stranger by the Lake) Teaser – Take a look at the gay art-porn noir that’s shaking up Cannes

May 21, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

linconnu-du-lac-trailer-slide
One of the films that’s been stirring up a fair amount of interest at Cannes is L’Inconnu du lac (Stranger by the Lake). Screening in the ‘Un Certain Regard’ segment of the festival, Alain Guiraudie’s film is a mix of very explicit sex, nihilistic thriller and arthouse drama. Reports suggest it got an extremely positive reaction at screenings, even though many have admitted its hardcore scenes will make it difficult to distribute.

The short synopsis from the Cannes website simply says, ‘Summertime. A cruising spot for men, tucked away on the shores of a lake. Franck falls in love with Michel. An attractive, potent and lethally dangerous man. Franck knows this, but wants to live out his passion anyway.’ That hints at the plot, which involves Franck witnessing Michel killing someone but telling nobody. He continues to pursue Michel, who holds him at arms length.

Take a look at a teaser for the film above (which you won’t be surprised to hear doesn’t feature any hardcore sexy, although it is a bit sexy). Hopefully its Cannes success will ensure this ‘porn noir’ gets better distribution than it might otherwise have had. [Read more…]

Love Or Whatever Teaser Trailer – Getting over an ex isn’t easy whether you’re gay or straight

May 21, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


Love Or Whatever is busy doing the film festival rounds at the moment, and will be released on DVD by TLA in the US later this year. But you can take a look at the teaser for the movie above.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘Corey is a good-hearted therapist who loves helping his sweet, eccentric clients find happiness. After two years in a relationship with carefree jock Jon, Corey decides it’s time to pop the question. Obsessed with planning the “perfect moment”, though, Corey lets chance after chance slip by, until his feisty sister Kelsey gives him an ultimatum: ask him tonight or I’ll do it for you! Corey agrees to take the leap. But when the proposal night arrives, Jon prematurely discovers the rings. Suddenly face-to-face with a big commitment, Jon is overwhelmed by fear and doubt, and rushes out to the bar to drown his worries with friends.

‘There he meets Melissa, an attractive, recently-divorced older woman looking to make a new start of her own. Drawn together by electric attraction and mutual need, they share a night of passion that leads to something more. When Jon confesses his infidelity to Corey, their split sends Corey into a tailspin. And Corey’s in for a bigger shock when he discovers that Jon’s new girlfriend Melissa is one of Corey’s biggest clients! Corey struggles to come to terms with the breakup and understand Jon’s actions, and though he knows better, Corey just can’t resist getting the dirt on his ex’s new relationship through his counseling sessions with Melissa.

‘Finally, guided (and gently pushed) by Kelsey, Corey puts himself back out there, navigating the wild world of web dating with hilariously disastrous results. But when Corey discovers the mobile social networking app Grindr, he finds the potential man of his dreams has been there all along—Pete, a poet, scholar, neighborhood pizza guy, and all around hunk. Corey had no idea Pete was gay, and better yet, single! Their friendship sparks a ‘bromance’ that soon blossoms into a romance. As their relationship grows, Corey struggles with his unresolved feelings for Jon—who, despite his relationship with Melissa, never seems too far from Corey’s door.

‘As Pete struggles with a family illness and Kelsey fights to save her beloved neighborhood coffee bar, Corey neglects them and starts to yearn for what he’s lost. Unexpectedly alone and vulnerable on the night of his 30th birthday, Corey finds bad-boy Jon at his doorstep looking for a second chance, and their unfinished business takes a passionate turn. But moments later, the different pieces of Corey’s life collide with explosive results, as Pete, Melissa and Kelsey discover the truth about Corey and Jon—and Corey must face the truth about himself. Alone for the first time in his life, with his boyfriend gone, his sister’s livelihood in peril and his career hanging by a thread, Corey has to make a choice: to rekindle the past with Jon or to start over and fight for Kelsey, his career, and a last chance at love with Pete. Can Corey face the fear, overcome his obsession with planning and perfection and embrace the crazy, scary, unpredictable, adventurous future as it comes? In Love Or Whatever, it all comes down to a wild finish—and a choice that will change Corey’s life forever.’ [Read more…]

UK Trailer For Behind The Candelabra Concentrates On Matt Damon as Liberace’s Lover

May 14, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


While Steven Soderbergh’s Behind The Candelabra will debut on TV in the US (HBO to be precise), in other countries it’s heading for cinemas. In the UK it’ll hit screens on June 7th, and now a trailer for the British release has been released.

Unlike the HBO promos, this one concentrates more of Matt Damon, who plays Scott Thorson in the film, who becomes legendary pianist Liberace’s much younger lover.

Here’s the official UK synopsis: ‘Before Elvis, before Elton John, Madonna and Lady Gaga, there was LIBERACE – infamous pianist, outrageous entertainer and flamboyant star of stage and television. A name synonymous with showmanship and extravagance, he lit up every stage he performed on, as bright as his candelabras and with a unique flair that gained him millions of devoted fans across the globe.

‘In the summer of 1977, handsome young stranger Scott Thorson walked into Liberace’s dressing room and, despite their age difference and seemingly different worlds, the two embarked on a secretive five-year love affair. To the outside world Scott was an employee, at most a friend, but behind closed doors his life with Liberace was an intense rollercoaster of hedonistic fun, flamboyance and excess.

‘Starring Michael Douglas as Liberace and Matt Damon as Scott Thorson, BEHIND THE CANDELABRA tells the fascinating true story of their glamorous life together and their tempestuous relationship — from the glitz and glamour of the early days in Las Vegas to their very bitter and public break-up.’

Matt Damon & Michael Douglas Get Glam In The Making Of Behind The Candelabra Featurette

May 6, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


Behind The Candelabra, Steven Soderbergh’s Liberace biopic starring Michael Douglas and Matt Damon, arrives on HBO in the US at the end of May, with cinema releases shortly afterwards in other parts of the world (it comes to the UK on June 7th).

HBO has now started airing a ‘making of…’ documentary, which has popped up online, and you can watch it above.

The film details Liberace’s (Douglas) relationship with his younger lover, Scotty Thorson (Damon), which saw Liberace publicly saying he was straight, while having his toyboy at home. Things went sour when they broke up and Scott sued the glamorous pianist for alimony.

Turtle Hill, Brooklyn Trailer – A gay couple find out unexpected truths

May 6, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


Turtle Hill, Brooklyn opened at New York’s Quad Cinema on Friday, so we thought it was a good excuse to take a look at the trailer for the movie.

In the movie, gay couple Mateo and Will invite their friends over for Will’s 30th birthday. After a few surprise visitors, they get through the day, but realize that doubting your partner isn’t nearly as scary as doubting yourself.

Director Ryan Gielen told Queerty, “[It’s] the story of a loving relationship challenged by cheating, and everyone can relate to that, but it’s rarely portrayed honestly in film. We want gay audiences to see themselves on screen, the good, the bad, the ugly, the beautiful.” [Read more…]
