Klute (1971)
VHS
DVD
"Jane Fonda came into her own with this Oscar-winning
performance as an insecure high-class call girl who can't make it as a
legitimate actress or model yet can't give up her addiction. She loves the
control too much. But when she's stalked by a killer, she's forced to confront
the darker aspects of her nature and profession. It's a complex and authentic
performance and Fonda plays it cool and smart. Typical of early '70s films,
Klute peels away social inhibition and hypocrisy with precision and candor.
It's also typical of director Alan J. Pakula's intelligence and ability to
work so well with actors. Donald Sutherland plays John Klute, the vulnerable
detective trying to determine if his missing friend is the stalker and sexual
deviant. This is the kind of moody, character-driven film so many of us miss
today, even if the plot is pure hokum." --Bill Desowitz, Amazon.com |

My Own Private Idaho
(1991)
VHS
DVD
"Gus Van Sant's often-beautiful 1991 film stars River Phoenix
as a narcoleptic, Seattle male prostitute and Keanu Reeves as the rich
friend who agrees to help him find his mother. After a solid hour or so of
the two traveling on this quest through Idaho and Italy, Van Sant throws a
wrench into the works by conjuring a gay version of Shakespeare's Henry IV,
Part I, with Reeves's character as Prince Hal and filmmaker William Richert
(who directed Phoenix in the 1988 Night in the Life of Jimmy Reardon) as a
variation on Falstaff. The experiment is interesting to watch, but you can't
help wondering what on earth happened to the movie. Still, the film has a
cult status one can't argue with, and Phoenix gives a tragic performance
that stays in the memory." -- Tom Keogh, Amazon.com |

The School of Flesh
(1999, subtitles)
VHS
DVD
"Perhaps only the French
could create a movie with the sexual heat of The School of Flesh.
International star Isabelle Huppert, a strawberry-blonde beauty with
brimming blue eyes, is Dominique, a successful businesswoman of "a certain
age." Quentin (model-pretty Vincent Martinez) is a bisexual male hustler
half her age. They begin an affair after meeting at a disco, and their
relationship turns toxic in short order--a compulsion that neither can
shake, with negative consequences for both. Each is drawn inexorably into a
hurtful game of cat and mouse, switching roles back and forth with every
round. More than anything else, the film does a truly convincing job of
depicting the exquisite pain of addictive relationships. It is impossible
not to become drawn into the enticing energy of the affair--to hope it won't
end, while knowing it must. The School of Flesh takes us on an irresistible
walk on the wild side." -- Laura Mirsky, Amazon.com |

The Toilers and the Wayfarers
(1997)
VHS
DVD
"A modest knockoff of My Own Private Idaho, The Toilers and the Wayfarers
rests heavily on the well-sculpted shoulders (and more) of its young hero,
Dieter (Matt Klemp). Dieter and his friend Phillip (Andrew Woodhouse) are
outcasts in the German-American town of New Ulm, Minnesota. Phillip, who
knows that he's gay, runs away to Minneapolis. Dieter starts to hang out
more with Udo (Ralf Schirg), a recent immigrant from Germany who's a bit of
a boozer and a loose cannon. The two of them also flee New Ulm for the big
city, where Dieter discovers that Phillip has become a street hustler. But
Dieter has also discovered his own sexuality, and the two friends become
lovers. Grainy black-and-white cinematography gives The Toilers and the
Wayfarers a striking look. The script meanders a bit but has a forthright
charm, much like its star." -- Bret Fetzer, Amazon.com | |
