Fair enough, that is why I didn't want to recommend any "coming out fairy tales". I thought Shortbus had a lot of "arty qualities" though, even if it wasn't an art film per se. As for total art films, Beau travail is still essential if you haven't seen it.

cuz I just got Fantoma's Kenneth Anger Vol 1 DVD and it is sweet. Never read the excerpts from Anais Nin's diaries about the making of Welcome to the Pleasuredome before (I didn't even recognize her in the movie - d'oh)

Early Paul Verhoeven, The Fourth Man: Gerard's homosexual relationship, shown at the beginning of the film, is of an unsupportive, bickering nature with violent overtones. Gerard is portrayed as an alcoholic, a shoplifter, a voyeur and contemptuous of his readers. When he sleeps with the petite Christine, he flattens her breasts with his hands and exclaims "you look like a boy in his glory; so slim, tender!" When Gerard flirts with Herman, he puts his hand on his thigh and says, "I could tell you stories. There's one bigwig bastard, when he throws a do. All the neighbors lock their kids up behind locks so thick. Children of six or seven years old, girls and boys, no difference. Find that fun? Little boys!" He seduces the heterosexual Herman by a surprise fondling of him from behind.

oh also:The Line of Beauty three-part miniseries adaptation by the BBC is quite good in its way-- very faithful to the book, in fact a bit more interesting.

George Kuchar's Thundercrack was a regular feature at the Scala cinema. Must have seen it a few times on double bills (with Lonesome Cowboys and Querelle I remember)

he co-wrote and appeared in it; Curt McDowell directed.

One of those scathing Armond White articles made me watch El Cielo Dividido (Broken Sky) by Julian Hernandez and I have to say that I liked it. There is nothing artier than slow fancy camerawork showing Mexican twinks gazing at each other all over the DF for 140 minutes with no dialog whatsoever. Liked the second half of Tropical Malady? You need to watch this right now. He has a new one that (from what I have read online) seems to be a Latin version of Apichatpong's queer classic.

try A Thousand Clouds... by him. a lot less enervating to my eyes.

it was like death in venice with a dash of 90210

At the NYFF tonight they showed an intro George Kuchar recorded at the hospice for the two videos they showed. "It's a one-way ticket here," he said, worrying about his lighting.
