You wished Boy Culture to be never made?!!!
C’mon dude, I consider it as the modern Bible for a gay man!

Disturbingly, I expect quality in even Gay Cinema !!
Boy Culture was just not my thing. No quality to the story line, and definitely no points for acting!
I wouldn’t expect so much, if it weren’t for the few good flicks

I’m sorry, I have to disagree on that!
Anyways, as soon as you check out A Love To Hide, add that to this list. You’ll absolutely adore it!
Mambo Italiano, another fantastic one!

i think you’d really enjoy “hedwig and the angry inch”! it’s based on an off-broadway musical and revolves around a fictional rock-and-roll band. it delves into LGBT issues without ever being pedantic or preachy and has some really great songs.
please check it out.
