The 50 Best Gay Movies (2009)

Easily guessed Brokeback Mountain would be number 1

 

I was working through the top 50 from 2008 (basically the same thing minus milk ) and after looking through this list i think ive seen about 70% of it.

 

Youtube has alot of them in 9-12 parts such as the birdcage, all over the guy, prayers for bobby and a few more.

http://www.watch-movies-links.net/ has links to some of the others, but not so much for the older / less popular movies.

A quick Google search with "Watch" or "Stream" plus the title of the film can result in some links, but you have to know how to weed through the bad/fake ones.

And in the case of a film i could just not find free to stream online, i torrented them. Im 99% sure we cant link torrent sites, so your on your own there

 

Glad to see Edge of Seventeen is included on my list. It's one of my favorites. I'm suprised Milk wasn't in the top 3, though. And Prayers for Bobby was quite low.

 

Beautiful Thing is number five! YES.



If you or your family has Netflix, check out their Gay & Lesbian genre. A lot of it can be watched online. Plus, they have an entire section dedicated to Logo.

I just watched that last night/this morning!

 

Lucky Bastard. XD
It's on youtube from time to time, but it's taken down all the time...

 

Shelter's still number one to me <3...but yah, ive almost made it through the 2008 list..and i cant believe prayers for bobby is so far back..i definatly thought it should be top ten or at least ahead of shortbus (...)

does anyone know the name of the film festival where were the world mine was introduced at in '08?..i wanna know what came out there this year, cause i have no idea where to find the newest LGBT films

 

Netflix!

 

So I agree with Shelter's place because honestly, it was a really well made movie with all factors taken into consideration. It was also very touching. And when I'd first seen it, I related pretty much identically to zach. Minus the whole surfing aspect and that I came to terms with my sexuality a lot younger

 

Watching Beautiful Thing now.

First movie I've had issues understanding due to the massive amount of English Words. XD

By that I mean British Slang XD (Or whatever you would refer to it as ._.)

 

Accent lol. I too had to rewind certain scenes in that movie just to understand.

 

^ Naw, I can understand the accent.

It's the words like Football and such that still confuse me, even though I know the meaning outside of America XD

The accents are fine, I deal with people with no teeth, with breathing problems, etc while answering phones at the Food Bank, so I've gotten good at understanding things that aren't "normal" to me.

 

I know what you mean. When I started watching Torchwood and The F Word, I was so confused. Like when I saw that there were two "series" of Torchwood.


But now, I watch primarily British programmes and act quite British, so I will use British terminology and an American accent... And I slightly obscure British pop culture references.
It's interesting.

 

rocky horror picture show is the shit.

 

Here is a really good link for those who are watching Beautiful Thing and don't quite understand some of the British jargon:

I still can't bring myself to watch milk. It just never really made me interested, to be completely honest ._. But people keep saying it's a great movie >_<

 

I got a trial for netflix and watched Latter Days. I really did enjoy it and would reccommend it.
