| Beautiful Thing: A Screenplay by Jonathan Harvey | The movie was really a beautiful thing. Some people would call it unbearable naiive - but then I would not want to talk to those people for a couple of minutes. It has had a profound influence on a lot of gay people's lives. | Buy now |
| Death in Venice by Thomas Mann | Of course you should see the Visconti movie with beautiful Björn Andresen as Tadzio, but while you try to locate a copy of the film, you should read the book. But remember to play some Mahler in the background... | Buy now |
