What a great point gratefulltiger ( Thanks Charles :) ) touched!!! Yes i have asked it because i m gay but i think all members of this beautiful site think that being a gay is nothing but a sexual identity, err yes to some extend what u do in bedroom and with whom categorizes u as gay but especially gay artists convinces us that their sexual identities influences their art even though they hide or deny it. i wanted to learn gay film-makers because when i m watching those film i would see them from another perspectives and to be frank knowing the names of those great gay atrists helps me to feel in comfort but not to be proud of being a gay; those film-makers r great but not cos of gayness but cos of their talents...
that is why this discussion should be over names and their works not over banal topics over gayness..
also i dont want to turn this board into a gay-forum but we can not deny that seeing how gayness is expilicitly or implicitly reflected in some great movies would be a innovative&effective experience over film&gays...
thansk for all who replied this topic and especially for Gaz and Gratefulltiger for their efforts to protect this topic to be "a discussion over sexual identity"...
