Some of my more astute readers may have noted a quote from one of these productions in the base configuration of this journal. This is a movie that I think all gay men should see.

Love the icon! Re: "life's a banquet" do you mean bears that over eat? Or the number of them that don't adventure? Or is this a sex addition thing (ala Amy Winehouse)?

Clearly you must see this movie. Your life will not be complete without it. It's a tad on the long side, but it's fabulous. I may have to organize a movie night for it.
