From Film Club
The Boys In The Band (Netflix, 3:01 a.m.): “[Mart] Crowley’s script benefits from being written more than a decade before the HIV/AIDS pandemic would steal an entire generation of the community (including much of the original Boys cast) and color gay stories for 20 years. At the start of both versions of the film, a character explains that his psychiatrist had to cancel their appointment because of “a virus or something. He said he was just too sick.” Fifteen years later, that line would have foreshadowed the tragedy ahead for the doctor, but here it’s a throwaway line used to explain a party guest’s early arrival. That perhaps encapsulates the importance of Boys In The Band: It’s about gay men just being.” Read the rest of Patrick Gomez’s film review.
The Glorias (Amazon, 3:01 a.m.): Look for coverage from Film Club soon.
