Wish I Could Ask...

Someone pointed out an edited clip of (supposedly) 101 films all gay men should see over on You Tube. I was curious how many I could pick out. I was miserably bad but could name more than I've seen such as Caberet, Funny Girl and All About Eve. I'd like to have gotten Mother's view on at least some of the films. I used to accuse her of having seen every film made before 1980 because her knowledge of films bordered on ridiculous. She denied the charge, in case you wondered.

I have to say the list is B.S. since it includes Glitter. No way Glitter (Mariah Carey) can be on a "must see" list.

Of the 101, I've seen six (well, almost seven):

Auntie Mame - Frickin' brilliant comedy.
Basic Instinct - Entertaining psycho.
Beautiful Thing - Working class Brit coming out film.
Casablanca - Classic film.
Maurice - OK-ish? Don't waste your time.
My Own Private Idaho - Crap. Heaping crap!
Some Like It Hot - Partially seen. Might have it on DVD.

I'm feeling a bit drowsy and have a headache. Perhaps more blogging to come!
