Ari is a handsome young man of Greek descent who finds himself torn between his traditional upbringing and conservative community, and his sexual identity. Ari careens between hanging out with his friends, bickering with his family, and several heterosexual and homosexual encounters, always trying to come to terms with where he fits in. Made in Australia, this movie was a hit down under.

4 stars Extraordinary
Aris is a very musculine guy living in Australia, son of Greek parents. His personality is in conflict with his family and social environment; He doesn?t feel very Greek, he doesn?t feel very Australian. So, he becomes a kind of a rebel: Instead of the conservative mentality of his community, he will experience drugs and gay life. The story is not only on Aris, but also on emigrant communities which are cut from their rootes and keep an old-fashioned way of life, that one they left behind years ago, although in their countries the way of life is changed. Perhaps for foreigner viewers this movie will be «Greek to them». But it is strange even for the Greeks and this is its power. It doesn?t focus on Greeks but it is almost a social study on emigrants that «time forgot». Not a pleasant movie, but a very interesting one. Ana Kokkinos, directing, dares to be sincere and realistic, while Alex Demetriades gives a perfect performance.

When two gay thugs Angel (Eduardo Noriega) and El Nene (Leonardo Sbaraglia) join a plan to hold up an armored truck with a group of seasoned gangsters, their love and loyalty to each other is tested. Angel is wounded by police gunfire during the robbery, forcing El Nene to kill them all in a fit of rage. Things become complicated when they escape to Uruguay and the police threaten to torture the driver's moll if she doesn't tell them where they are. With their pictures plastered on the cover of every paper, drowning in drugs and alcohol, the gang begins to bicker. Against his boss's wishes El Nene leaves the apartment and roams the streets where he meets a prostitute named Giselle (Leticia Bredice) in whom he begins to trust. Director Marcelo Piñeyro, whose films have been both critically acclaimed and commercially successful, is one of the most important figures in contemporary cinema in Argentina. His fourth film is a delicate balance of a gripping bloodbath and a moving, tender love story. BURNT MONEY is based on a book by Ricardo Piglia and was inspired by a true story of a famous bank robbery in Buenos Aires in the 1960s. This film was screened in April 2001 at the Walter Reade Theater in New York City as part of a New Argentine Cinema festival organized by the Film Society of Lincoln Center. Burnt Money (Plata Quemada) is based on a true story that is legend in Argentinean crime ...

After he's outed at his Midwestern precinct, gay cop John (Jonathan Wade Drahos) heads to Los Angeles to stay with his cousin Tad (Daniel Kucan), a documentary filmmaker chronicling the local gay scene. Naïve and closeted for a little too long, John only needs one little sniff and he's totally sucked into the world of "circuit" parties, drug-fueled gay raves full of steamy sex, thumping disco, steroid-amped bodies, and soap opera-style interpersonal drama. Soon his life is spiraling out of control and it's time to learn some valuable lessons. Ex-Playgirl centerfold Dirk Shafer directs CIRCUIT from a script he wrote with producer Gregory Hinton. There's lots of drug use, vanity, angst, groping, and softcore sex (bed sheets and shadows mask total full frontal nudity). Kiersten Warren adds some estrogen and humor as John's college pal who has also come to L.A. to pursue her career as a stand-up comic. Jim J. Bullock (TOO CLOSE FOR COMFORT) appears as a drag queen, William Katz and Nancy Allen are married party promoters caught up in a scam involving AIDS and life insurance. Many of the scenes were filmed at actual circuit parties (including the notorious "White Party"), with the attendees acting as extras. From Director Dirk Schafer, whose "Man of the Year" pulled ...
