Parting Glances (1986)

[mrmousetolliver]

Parting Glances (1986) directed by Bill Sherwood. Parting Glances is one of the first films to deal frankly and realistically with the subject of AIDS and is considered by many critics to be an important film in the history of Gay cinema.

The film was directed by first time director Bill Sherwood, who also edited and wrote the screenplay. It is also the first major roles for Steve Buscemi. Janet Maslin of the New York Times said "It is to both his and the film's credit that the anguish of AIDS is presented as part of a larger social fabric, understood in context, and never in a maudlin light." Bill Sherwood died in 1990 of complications from AIDS. In 2006, Outfest and the UCLA Film and Television Archive announced that the film would be the first to be restored as a part of the Outfest Legacy Project. The film is available for streaming on Tubi.

This Deleted Scene Would Have Changed Harry Potter & The Deathly Hallows | Nerdstalgic

Often When a Director Leaves a Scene on the Cutting Room Floor, it's for a Good Reason. Though when David Yates was Finishing Harry Potter & the 2 part Deathly Hallows Installments, a Deleted Scene Could Have Added a World of Closure to His life @ Number 4 Privet Drive. When Leaving his Childhood Home in the Film, it all Seems Very Quick & Emotionless. But With Just a Few Minutes of Deleted Dialogue Added Back in, it Could Have Given Audiences the Closure He Needed From the Dursley's & his Childhood Home.

Steve Buscemi’s Queer Roles:

Nick is struggling with HIV, and his ex-boyfriend, Robert, comes to comfort him.

(Technically not gay (per say) but this does happen, so…)

[ronehmke]

Still the best movie about AIDS (& daily life in downtown NYC) from its era, and the movie that introduced Steve Buscemi to indie filmgoers.

Some not so serious doodles about the idea where Silco survived and Warwrick!Vander found him. I did these as fanservice for ME! Especially the clothes thing

(have fun trying to figure out the reading order of the third sketch dump)
