Shampoo (1975) 75% “The sixties framework simply drives the irony home all the harder.” – Film Quarterly Mar 3, 2025 Full Review School Daze (1988) 58% 4/4 “The problem isn’t with School Daze; the problem is with a white culture that cannot deal with the spectacle of blacks on-screen on their own terms.” – Chicago Reader May 11, 2022 Full Review Poison (1991) 80% “Haynes demonstrates an understanding of Genet’s centrality to gay culture while suggesting ways that Genet’s works can be used as a tool for exploring personal and political awareness.” – The Advocate Apr 5, 2022 Full Review The Electrical Life of Louis Wain (2021) 68% C “"The Electrical Life of Louis Wain" isn't even half over by the time its margins start to grow soggy with sadness.” – IndieWire Sep 23, 2021 Full Review Modesty Blaise (1966) 50% “The whole film -- redolent with pop-and op-art imagery -- suggests nothing less than an Arthur Freed musical on acid.” – The Advocate Jul 27, 2021 Full Review The Times of Bill Cunningham (2018) 80% “To put it another way, Bill Cunningham is a sort of secular Saint...” – Los Angeles Blade Feb 14, 2020 Full Review Vita & Virginia (2018) 41% “It's not a pretty picture, but it's a true one, ad same-sex couples who've "been there" are sure to be thankful for Vita and Virgina as much as the Bloomsbury adepts who'll be certain to flock to it.” – Los Angeles Blade Feb 10, 2020 Full Review Judy (2019) 82% “Zellweger's womanlike skill is strikingly admirable but the passion of Judy Garland just didn't zing the strings of my heart.” – Los Angeles Blade Feb 10, 2020 Full Review Where's My Roy Cohn? (2019) 87% “Outside of Adolf Eichmann's trial, I daresay nothing this individually monstrous has been seen on screen before.” – Los Angeles Blade Feb 10, 2020 Full Review Dark Waters (2019) 89% “Hynes delivers the bad news with added assurance that consciousness and comprehension are the best disinfectants of them all.” – Los Angeles Blade Feb 10, 2020 Full Review The Other Side of the Wind (2018) 82% “That this hapless, incoherent mess brings down the curtain on a fabled filmmaker's career when it was expected to cap it is lamentable, but not entirely unpredictable.” – Los Angeles Blade Nov 30, 2018 Full Review Can You Ever Forgive Me? (2018) 98% “Melissa McCarthy's turn at the "serious" bat in "Can You Ever Forgive Me?" is something quite special.” – Los Angeles Blade Oct 27, 2018 Full Review Just Charlie (2017) 100% “One of most moving and insightful films about the trans experience ever made.” – Los Angeles Blade Feb 5, 2018 Full Review Phantom Thread (2017) 91% “That Daniel Day-Lewis, whose career was launched when he played a cheeky gay punk with a Pakistani boyfriend in "My Beautiful Laundrette," has elected to end his career with this closet caper is more than a tad depressing.” – Gay City News Dec 27, 2017 Full Review Call Me by Your Name (2017) 95% “As a gay love story, told without judgment and without apology, it's something that would have seemed unthinkable not so very long ago - and that feels like progress.” – Los Angeles Blade Dec 19, 2017 Full Review Handsome Devil (2016) 84% “... "Handsome Devil" is a lively gay romance, even though it isn't all that romantic.” – Los Angeles Blade Oct 24, 2017 Full Review Loev (2015) 86% “... there's also no doubt that Sudhanshu Saria will have a great career if he can continue to make films as tender, insightful and surprising as this one.” – Los Angeles Blade Oct 24, 2017 Full Review 4 Days in France (2016) 91% “... for those who warm to [director Jrȏme] Reybaud's cinematic rhythm will find "Four Days in France" to be one of the best gay films in years.” – Los Angeles Blade Oct 24, 2017 Full Review Ivans Xtc (2002) 77% “Shot on High Definition video, this exceptionally well-made but exceedingly bleak peek at tinseltown would be unbearable were it not for the sympathetic performance of Danny Huston...” – New Times Oct 3, 2017 Full Review Second Skin (1999) “Though very well-acted, it's not the film it could have been.” – New Times Oct 3, 2017 Full Review Km. 0 (2000) 55% “It's this same disinclination to judge that allows Km. 0 to move from raucous comedy to bittersweet romance...” – New Times Oct 3, 2017 Full Review Krampack (2000) 87% “... the film goes a long way toward dispelling myths of innocence and purity, while showing that teen-agers can sometimes be wise enough to figure out some of life's most important lessons for themselves.” – New Times Oct 3, 2017 Full Review Light It Up (1999) 40% “... it's this sense of the "real" that not only keeps Light It Up lively but that marks it -- for all its visual flair -- as happily out of step with a zeitgeist enamored of naught but money and notoriety as the wildly overhyped millennium turns.” – New Times Oct 3, 2017 Full Review How Stella Got Her Groove Back (1998) 50% “The timing couldn't be better for How Stella Got Her Groove Back.” – New Times Oct 3, 2017 Full Review Head On (1998) 58% “... the movie demonstrates just how hard coming out can be, especially for those more at war with themselves than with the culture around them.” – New Times Oct 3, 2017 Full Review
