Shortbus
“Voyeurism is participation.”
What I saw in Shortbus is that it is all about being human. This movie deals with feelings, hardships, love, sex, relationships, and struggles to find a balance between those.
It strikes me a bit after some searches on the web that many people consider this movie as unusual, off-limits or even pornographic. Nonsense! Shortbus is about real life, the one you can see when you open your eyes and look around you.
My favourite character is Caleb. Maybe because Peter Stickles is gorgeous, or maybe because I identify with the role.

The mostly unfabulous social life of Ethan Green
Film du soir, espoir…
This incredible movie was brought to my curiosity by some pictures of its georgous cast.
Until now Notting Hill was my favourite item at the top of that list where younger people put Cinderella and other happy-ending fairy tales. But after I watched The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert I realized that Notting Hill was lacking a bit of… something. Something fabulous. Something queer. Something about chaos and immorality. Something about me.
And so here comes Ethan Green, and I can toss Notting Hill away from that list.
