Army of Lovers or Revolt of the Perverts
IMDB 4 | May , 1979
Personal diary-style documentary of German Gay rights activist Von Praunheim's sojourn in the US.Dead Gay Men and Living Lesbians
IMDB 3.5 | Feb , 2008
As a result of the Holocaust and later, AIDS, the male homosexual community has sustained bitter losses and, according to Praunheim, lesbian women have now placed themselves at the head of the so-called queer movement. The female protagonists in the film represent two different generations; they also incorporate the past and present status of homosexuals in society.Inside Deep Throat
IMDB 6.4 | Feb , 2005
In 1972, a seemingly typical shoestring budget pornographic film was made in a Florida hotel: "Deep Throat," starring Linda Lovelace. This film would surpass the wildest expectation of everyone involved to become one of the most successful independent films of all time. It caught the public imagination which met the spirit of the times, even as the self-appointed guardians of public morality struggled to suppress it, and created, for a brief moment, a possible future where sexuality in film had a bold artistic potential. This film covers the story of the making of this controversial film, its stunning success, its hysterical opposition along with its dark side of mob influence and allegations of the on set mistreatment of the film's star.Back on Board: Greg Louganis
IMDB 7.4 | Jun , 2014

Because every journey is always a love story.Chasing Chasing Amy
