hey, folks -- rj here. a few days back i asked for suggestions for queer- positive film titles. the response was amazing. i have amassed over 185 titles of queer-*related* films. note that i use the term *related*, because -----> NOT ALL OF THESE FILMS PORTRAY QUEERS POSTIVELY !!! <----- please take note of this. most of them do; however, some have queer killers, spies (bad ones), etc. i am simply passing on the titles listed to me. if you want a "complete" list of the films (by complete i mean that most have some documentation, i.e. description, year made, etc.), e-mail me for it. i'd be happy to pass it on to people who want the extra info, but to post it all on the net would be ridiculous. so, anyhow, here's my list (so far) of queer-related films: ---------------------------------------------------------- A Bigger Splash A Celebration of Lesbian and Gay Life A Conversation with Brian McNaught and Love on Being Gay [On Being Gay] A Man Like Eva [Ein Mann wie Eva] A Moffie Called Simon A Very Natural Thing A Woman of My Platoon A Woman's Place Is in the House Absence of Us Abuse All Out Dancing in Dulais Alternative Conceptions An Early Frost Angel [Angelos] Another Country Apartment Zero Army of Lovers, or Revolt of the As Is Perverts Before Stonewall: The Making of a Gay Behind Glass and Lesbian Community (PBS film) Black and White [Noir et Blanc] Blue Jeans Bright Eyes Buddies Carravagio Choosing Children Colonel Redl Consenting Adult Corps de Parole Cruising Dark Habits (Entre Tinebras?)
