wesleysgirlI have a list here of GLBT movies that people liked or didn't like -- haven't updated it in ages, but there it is.
Surprisingly, I've seen several decent GLBT movies in the past couple of weeks. I say "surprisingly" because I've seen so many sub-par GLBT films that I've come to expect them to be bad -- either the plot or the acting or the dialogue or all three. But here are a few that weren't!
Mulligans - Married guy who thinks he's straight falls for his son's college friend.
Arizona Sky - Guy returns to his home town to visit the best friend he left behind many years before. Reminds me of "Big Eden" in some ways, though it's obviously a much lower budget production and is really carried by the two main characters (whereas Big Eden is more of an ensemble piece).
Make the Yuletide Gay - Not great, but there were things about it that I liked, and some scenes that I thought were well done.
Coffee Date - I'd seen this before but it was on Logo so I watched it again, and I liked it just as much the second time around. Straight guy's brother sets him up for a blind date with another guy as a prank, but the two guys hit it off (as friends) and get very close.
