Movie

The Escort (1996)
L'escorte IMDb Douban
other title: O Escorte / 情色伴游 …
Caution--- While this review does not include any "spoilers", it does divulge some early elements of the plot --- Philippe is a gay man pushing 30 who is living with slightly older Jean-Marc, his lover of seven years. The movie opens after the failure of their restaurant. We are at a small party that Jean-Marc and Philippe are giving. We soon learn that Philippe's long time friends Nathalie and Christian are keeping a secret from him. Meanwhile, Jean-Marc intervenes as some of the guests "order" an escort over the phone. The party breaks up when Nathalie leaves after a spat with Jean-Marc then has an `attack' and phones Philippe to come help her. While Jean-Marc is cleaning up after the party, Steve, a handsome young man appears at the door. It seems the escort has arrived. After Jean-Marc and Steve `consummate' the deal. Steve asks to stay the night. While attempting to fix a faulty ceiling light, Steve gets entangled in a hanging macramé only to have Philippe return home to what he takes as an attempted suicide. While the lovers quickly untangle the youth before he strangles, it takes the filmmaker 90 minutes to untangle the threads he's woven. I'd recommend this movie for any gay men for that rainy day when nothing better presents itself. Overall the story is interesting and well paced and doesn't get bogged down like so many films of this ilk do. It has moments that work, the characters are likeable and its generally enjoyable but it does fall short of `Great'. It will not change your life or become one of those movies that you return to again and again but it is enjoyable and it doesn't waste your time.

other title: 丹尼的天空
简介: 19岁的丹尼在单亲家庭中长大。小时候,因为同志父亲,丹尼被迫退学,父子俩也不得不搬家。 父亲一直担心他长大也成为同志,从小对他严加约束,不许他接触有同志倾向的东西,也从不和他有任何亲昵的动作。然而,叛逆的丹尼却不顾父亲反对,一心想往时尚界发展。有一天他与父亲大吵了一架后离开了家。为了谋生,他在一家同志酒吧里做脱衣舞男…… 观众点评: 不知道这部片子算不算所谓的同志片。偶个人看法,没有必要把界限划分得那么清晰,同志生活和主流有一定距离,但也无须隔绝为另类文化。让主流以异样的眼光看待我们,本身就是对自己认同的一种退步。 电影主题很好,一个在单亲同志家庭里长大的青少年的困惑。用丹尼的怨言来说,别人谁都没有把丹尼当作同志,唯有他爸爸。(丹尼长得很帅气,很爱美,但他是直人) 故事设定的背景有些不实。丹尼的爸爸,仅仅因为孩子在学校受到了歧视,怕自己会影响孩子的性取向,就努力把自己变成个直人,离开男友,对孩子严加管教。嗯,这可不符合西方崇尚个人的价值观,倒是更象是个东方式的压抑的父亲。
