Ovaj film se baš i ne može svrstati u gay themed movies iako je tokom cjelog trajanja filma u centru pažnje jedan momak koji se pretvara da je gay. U samom startu film je za prosiječnog pedera postavljen naopako! Str8 koji se pretvara da je gay je nešto što će svaki prosječno iskusan peder razotkriti! Još ako je taj strejter zgodan i privlačan za pet munuta istina izlazi na vidjelo.
Teže je pronaći pedersku skrivenu stranu kod “str8” čovjeka, nego ovo. Ali ako zanemarimo ovu lošu predpostavku, film se može pogledati i u porodičnom ambijentu, jer vašeg punoljetnog sina i momka sigurno neće zatrovati bezobraznom golotinjom muških tijela.
Priča se odvija u gužvi studentskog života u nekom od američkih univerziteta ili ti sveučilišta kako je meni draže reći, jer tu se zaista svašta može naučiti. Iako sam prošao kroz sve faze studentskog načina života, zaista nisam nikada primjetio da postoje tu muški ili ženski klanovi kao u ovim američkim filmovima. A baš bih volio da tako nešto ima kod nas, stim da bih ja morao biti vođa!:) U tako jednom ženskom klanu zgodni djevojčurak dobije zadatak da slomije srce nekom pederu. Nesrečnim slučajem naletu na nespretnog momka koji u želji da je osvoji izrekne čuvenu rečenicu:”Ja sam gay!”
I nakon toga mora da prođe kroz sva sranja koja se dešavaju pederu koji uleti u coming out!
Obilje simpatičnih i smješnih scena u kojima se nesretni mladić našao i po svoj prilici neobično dobro snašao učiniće da vam ovaj film ugodno utroši oko sat i po vremena.
Mene je podsjetio na moju omiljenu zabavu: “kako u str8 momku otkriti gay stranu i ukazatu mu na nju! ?”
Nakon što sam završio fakultet zaposlio sam se i naravno iznajmio stan koji sam dijelio sa cimerom kojeg sam zvao “ljubavi moja” Pošto on zaista nije peder lako je prihvatio moju zajebanciju i kada god smo bili sami zajebavali smo se kao da smo najzaljubljeniji par. Jednom prilikom mi je rekao da koliko god se mi zajebavali na taj račun , da me zaista iskreno voli i da bi volio da ima curu koju će voljeti kao i mene! Nakom jedno godinu dana našao je!

Clay - Sam Huntington Marjorie - Marla Sokoloff Matt - Mike Erwin Jessica - Heather Matarazzo Amanda - Kaitlin Doubleday Tazwell - Bryce Johnson Serena - Jud Tylor Very Drunk Chick - Rachel Dratch Rodney - John Goodman
With intermittently amusing glee, writer-director Ryan Shiraki's tyro film, "Freshman Orientation," frolics through the political minefields of a typical college campus. Pic's straight hero, a foolhardy college dude, reckons he'll play along with a cute gal's false assumption that he's gay, leading to a politically incorrect but ultimately exhausted social satire on sexual and social expectations. Distrib Regent may try to target gay auds, but could find resistance, given the pic's guy-gets-girl happy ending. Broader marketing pitch in vid may be able to grab a hungry college crowd.
Clay (Sam Huntington) views college life as one long sexual adventure before his boring adult years, but he soon finds that picking up chicks isn't exactly like walking through the produce section. When his first roomie accidentally kicks the bucket, he enlists the far more subdued Matt (Mike Erwin) as his new companion, while fending off the verbal slings of ex-g.f. and current lesbian punkette Marjorie (Marla Sokoloff).
Shiraki's script cleverly dovetails Clay's interest in sorority gal Amanda (Kaitlin Doubleday) with Amanda's mission -- arranged by mega-bitchy sorority leader Serena (Jud Tylor) -- to woo and then dump various "loser" guys. Amanda's target candidate is supposed to be gay, and through a comic mixup stirred by Amanda's potty-mouthed pal Jessica (Heather Matarazzo), Amanda mistakenly believes Clay fits the bill. Sensing a choice opportunity to get cozy with this hottie, Clay plays along and seriously gets into his new persona. Pic good-naturedly follows Clay through his somewhat unsentimental gay education, greatly boosted by jolly gay barkeep Rodney (John Goodman, having a fine old time in colorful support).
But the comedy starts sputtering as the truth about Clay's sexual preference and Amanda's ruse surface. It's as if Shiraki ran out of ideas and hoped his cast would carry things. Pic lurches from incident to incident, leading to a silly knock-down-drag-out between the college radicals and conservative Greeks, with a final section that's thoroughly out of fuel.
Huntington displays a real eye and ear for funny timing and behavior, and charms with a bad-boy glint. As a confused young man who comes out of the closet, Erwin's Matt sometimes feels as if he's walked in from another movie, while Sokoloff and Matarazzo have a ball with their zinger lines. Playing the aptly named Very Drunk Chick, Rachel Dratch is a lot less funny than she usually is, but proves that she's a comic thesp with no shame. Production package mimics the bright look of studio teen and college comedies, but at a noticeably lower pricetag. Music selections abound in cleverness, ranging from re-dos of Janis Ian to Britney Spears.

Starcrossed je priča o dva brata (Darren i Connor) čija se veza razvija u pravcu potpuno neprihvatljivom za okolinu. Osim emotivne povezanosti koja prevazilazi okvire bratske ljubavi, prepuštaju se i fizičkim strastima. Na žalost sve ovo nesretnim slučajem otkriva i njihova majka.
Nemam brata, ali nisam siguran koliko je često da dva brata imaju seks. Vjerujem da je to vrlo rijedak slučaj. Kao klinac drkao sam s dva brata blizanca, ali daleko od toga da se radilo o nekom seksu.
Sretao sam se sa slučajevima gdje su obadva brata u porodici gay, ali između njih nije postojala emotivno-ljubavna veza već samo normalan bratski odnos. Incest ovakve vrste se vjerovatno dešava, ali o tome se ne priča. Dovoljno je tabu tema biti gay ( barem na balkanu) , a incest između rođene braće prevazilazi sve moguće tabue. U mom slučaju incest se dešavao sa rođacima, i bližim i daljim, ali sve je to bilo jako davno tako da ne mogu analizirati sve to. Čak sam i nevinost izgubio od jednog rođaka , na jednom tavanu kuće iz XV vijeka. Samog seksa se i ne sjećam dobro osim da sam se nakon toga jako loše osjećao i da me neko vrijeme uopšte nije privlačio bilo kakav seks.
Heartbreaking, shattering and really touching!, 29 September 2007 9/10 Author: RegardeLaMer from United States
I recently had the privilege to see the acclaimed short “Starcrossed” and I was really not too thrilled with the topic genre of the film dealing with incest and teenage suicide. I in fact really frown upon films that deal with teenage suicide, and really frowned on this movie.
I literally felt myself almost heading to the bathroom to puke after seeing this movie, not only because it was so disturbingly sad, but because it was so real and a little traumatizing to me. I did cry at the end of the film, because it was a terrible ending… It was true and oh so sad. I don’t really know how this movie is not shown more in theaters. The movie is so painfully blunt and powerful that if you walk away “unchanged” after seeing this film, then you are seriously mentally deranged.
This movie was shattering and hit a spot that I was not ready for it to be hit. It was way too painful to watch again and again, but I really cherished the first time I saw this movie and will watch it again, but want to recover from my first encounter with it.
Kada vas neko prevari vi se naljutite i ostavite ga. A šta radite kada prevarite samog sebe? Tačno znate da je čovijek koji sjedi naspram vas onaj koji vas maltretira, laže, vara... Pa što onda i dalje sjedite sa njim? Zašto varate samog sebe? E pa u narodu se kaže: Lubav nije krtola ! Nije sve tako jednostavno kada su emocije u pitanju!
Radnja ovog filma je smještena pred kraj drugog svjetskog rata u jednom malom francukom selu. Guy Rouveron je priprosti seljak koji živi u kolibi podalje od sela. Živi u svjetu koji je sam sebi izgradio, emocionalno nedozreo, pateći od iznenadnih halucinacija, koje ga otimaju iz surovog okruženja u kojem živi. Nalazi ranjenog njemačkog vojnika Rolfa, odnese ga u svoju kolibu i liječi ga, njeguje ga, nijemo posmatra. Rolf kada ozdravi pokušava da se vrati u svoju jedinicu, a Guy, koji ga je zavolio na neki sebi poseban način pokušava da ga zadrži kod sebe. Između njih se stvara posebna emotivna veza, uzajmna privlačnost i želja da budu jedan sa drugim. U početku ne u seksualnom smislu, al kasnije se to nekako prirodno nametne među njima. Ljudi koji bi se trebali mrziti postaju emotivno ovisni jedan od drugom, djeleći želju da budu zajedno, otrgnuti od ostatka svjeta u kojem vlada pravilo da treba da se mrze i ubijaju. U okruženju u kojem su se našli njihovo zajedništvo je osuđeno na najtežu moguću kaznu. Film koji zaista vrijedi pogledati više puta!

A modern gay classic, We Were One Man takes place in France in 1943 and is the story of Guy, a French farmer about to be married, and Rolf, a wounded German soldier. One day Guy finds Rolf, takes him home, nurses him to health and tries to prevent his return to the army. Gradually the men discover a mutual atraction that leads to an intense relationship and a lyrical, highly erotic love scene.
Rolf is a soldier who doubts the value of his commitment to the Nazi cause. Guy blocks out memories of his recent incarceration in a mental hospital and suffers from hallucinations. Their relationship serves as a catalyst for both men as they explore long-repressed feelings.
We Were One Man had its U.S. premiere at the Chicago International Film Festival in 1980, where it was awarded the prestigious Silver Hugo. Written, produced, edited, and directed by France's premiere gay director, Philippe Vallois, who went on to direct the great body-building murder mystery spoof, Rainbow Serpen --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Vallois made a film which is not easy to watch and one never forgets it, since this film speaks out things normally silenced. Love between persons of different sex is theme in many war time movies where border line separates the lovers and the rest is sentimental crap. But here we have two men who should hate each other, as men should, even if they are not enemies. They are, however, in a secluded hut, mid-forest, also metaphorically: they don't know anything about each other than what they see. No common language. But in their flesh they begin to know each other, little by little: they are men, they have the same urges and because of the war times they don't have to play social plays. They don't need the illusion a civilized life requires; they joyfully agree in being straightforward in their physical needs. Communication is all but easy but they show us art and practice we don't know anymore, not in everyday life. They attack each other directly in flesh, both in sensitive way and aggressively, ending up making love or running away from each other. Vallois' film is like a well structured reality document where one looks the world that should be there somewhere but one knows that any peace and civilized state of mind make a life like that impossible. Men simply can't love each other without Mothers giving them rules for that.
Moram priznati sinoć dok sam gledao ovaj film zaspao sam! No bez obzira na to preporučujem vam da pogledate ovaj film, a posebno oni koji AIDS smatraju nečim na što su imuni. Film je snimljen 1990 i govori o prvim danima AIDSA, kada je ta bolest najviše ugrožavala gay populaciju, narkomane i hemofiličare. Srećom danas nije tako jer je velika većina gay populacije naučila kako da se zaštiti od ove na žalost smrtonosne bolesti.

Plot Summary: Perhaps the first film to put a human face on the AIDS epidemic, Longtime Companion follows the lives of a small circle of friends from the first mention of the disease in the New York Times in 1981. First referred to as "Gay-Related-Immune-Disorder," we watch the effect of the disease as it devastates the lives of our protagonists. Jumping between Manhattan and Fire Island, vignettes carry us from the it-couldn't-happen-to-me mentality of the early days of the disease to the invasive effect it has had on all of our lives, today. The title of the film comes from the New York Times' refusal to acknowledge homosexual relationships in their obituary section during this period. Instead, survivors were referred to as "Longtime Companions" of the deceased. Written by Mark Fleetwood {mfleetwo@mail.coin.missouri.edu}

Trivia: In the poster art and DVD cover, the image of the guys walking on the beach has been altered - some might say censored. In the scene where the poster/cover image is taken from in the movie, the character "Fuzzy" is wearing an ACT-UP t-shirt that depicts two sailors kissing with the tag line that read "Read My Lips", a play on then President Bush's "Read My Lips, No New Taxes" slogan. In the cover art, the t-shirt graphic has been removed so that he only has a blank white t-shirt now. more

Synopsis:
Daniel (Fernando Guillén Cuervo) is a middle-aged, gay man who comes from an established family and lives a charmed, middle-class existence. He is a "regular" of Madrid's gay bar scene sometimes hunting for good-looking, young foreigners. At one of these bars, he meets Kyril (Dritan Beba), a hunky 23-year-old Bulgarian. After a night of animalistic passion, Daniel is under his Eastern European spell. Wild, reckless and slightly dangerous, Kyril seems to turn Daniel's conservative and rather predictable life upside down. With each sexual encounter with his Bulgarian lover, Daniel is pulled deeper into Kyril's web of nefarious activities. Can Daniel meet the challenges of his brand new lover or has he bitten off more than he can chew?
