Is this the queer cinema renaissance we have been waiting for?
Much like LGBTI people, Queer cinema has struggled to find its place, often disadvantaged and dismissed by the mainstream. Making movies is expensive and generally queer cinema never has access to the same kind of budgets as its hetero-normative counterparts resulting in, at times, distractingly poor production standards which fans of the genre generally forgive, hungry for any kind of representation on screen. Actors can be afraid to be associated with ‘gay roles’ whether they are gay, straight, closet, etc in real life. And stories can be safe, not wanting to miss the chance of catching that stray, curious, ‘straight’ viewer. But lately, in my opinion, some of these concerns are disappearing. Though film-making is still an expensive endeavor, high-quality cameras, audio and editing equipment is cheaper than ever – resulting in higher production standards. Need an aerial shot of a car on a desert highway? No need to hire a chopper. Hire or even buy outright a drone for that spectacular opening, closing or establishing shot. The myriad of ways we can now watch ‘cinema’ also helps, as streaming services (and alike) are hungry for content, making them far more willing to take risks on ‘niche’ titles to fill their catalog. All this brings me to Lazy Eye, which has its fair share of striking drone shots (of the Mohave Desert) and that I saw via iTunes after reading about it in a festival program – the kind of instant access to queer cinema I never had only a few years ago. There’s no need to give a synopsis here but Lazy Eye (ironically) looks great, uses its locations well and is, for the most part, well-acted in what is essentially a two-hand-er. Another positive is the story, one that deals with gay men who are completely at ease with their sexuality, the drama coming from their tumble towards middle age and the physical, mental and emotional changes that come with it. We’ve seen the coming out, first love story countless times – Lazy Eye is what happens 15 plus years down the track, when you’ve had a number of relationships, you’re out to everyone around you and might even be in a same sex marriage. Lazy Eye also doesn’t reply on overt, titillating or unrealistic sex scenes where some queer cinema makes the mistake of being more like a porno. That’s not to say Lazy Eye doesn’t have sex scenes, there are two, but both have a distinct storytelling purpose and are all the more emotionally arousing for it. While it’s not a perfect film (the ‘Lazy Eye’ of the title ends up having little bearing on the story despite the opening scene) it is an example of a certain maturity Queer cinema has reached both in production technique and story content. Another recent film, ‘Retake’, is very similar. Well shot, well- acted, set partially in a desert and deals with characters who are not tormented by their sexuality but who are dealing with life issues common to everyone. Retake too is very much worth a look as is ‘Those People’. Again, it’s well shot, in this case beautifully with characters not dealing with the singular issue of ‘being gay’ but dealing with life issues from a gay perspective. Yet another example is ‘Akron’. On the surface it has all the hallmarks of the coming-out, first love story but quickly and refreshingly our very young characters are revealed to be utterly at ease with being gay as are their family and friends. While probably the weaker of the films mentioned here, Akron is worth seeing for the absolute normalcy of the gay relationship, accentuated by amazingly natural and uninhibited performances from the two leads. If these films are any indication, the future of Queer cinema is indeed bright.

Decent acting, slow, weak story line…..
A gay, drama romance about two, middle aged fellas, Dean and Alex, who reconnect after losing contact with one another for 15 years. Setting in the 29 Palms area of CA served as a relaxing backdrop, but we see the overuse of water(pool) and cigarettes as a common symbolic element in gay movies. Presumably the water element gives a logical reason for why the characters in gay movies must disrobe, show skin and perhaps get physical. I don’t fancy being submerged in water so that wouldn’t be a key element in one of my movies and I would try to use other natural reasons to portray nudity. The cigarettes have got to go. There hasn’t been anything sexy about them since 1960. Now to the story line…..the two gay characters had had a summer long affair 15 years prior while they both lived in NYC. They parted ways and during that 15 year period we are to believe that a romantic/sexual fire still burned long and hot between them, yet no credible reason for the sustaining of this eternal fire was given. An online search helped them reconnect and within 15 minutes of their long overdue reunion, they started force Frenching and proceeded to pounce on one another in the bedroom. Hmmmm…not what two rational middle aged adults would likely do given the context. Much of the conversations between the two characters was realistic but far too slow and mundane. And let’s face it, if we are going to be watching two dudes for 88 minutes, they had better be filmed in the most flattering ways….not so with Dean looking like a drowned water rat, long hair disheveled and water dripping down his glasses for much of the movie. The flash backs to their early 20s was not credible either and some of these shots lasted too long. It was too obvious that Dean and Alex did not look 20 something. Of course, Dean is married, to a guy, who’s conveniently away for work in far away Australia. Only problem is…his long lost Alex doesn’t know this until they’ve reconsummated their previous affair. Creates a bit of a credible dramatic tension, but how they part ways at the end doesn’t give the viewer much of a happy feeling, nor does it signal an adult message that promotes maturity and wisdom.
