Back Room

7/10

Captured it precisely

This short absolutely nailed the essence of a back room wherever they are in the world. I've been to dozens in London, Berlin and Dortmund, Madrid and Barcelona, Paris, Copenhagen, elsewhere. The same tricks and manoeuvres alongside the thoughts that the film opens up for us with its voice overs are similar in all of them.

This is anonymised cruising with one object - to get off with someone "not too bad" as it's unlikely the man of one's dreams will be there.

All the tropes were on display. The hunk who makes do, the kid who isn't yet assertive enough to refuse the horrors that are mauling him, the same kid being brutally used, the despising of fems, olds, uglies. But these latter will do in the end. The resentment on display, the depersonalisation of human relations.

It's an integral part of the gay scene, as much a part of it as Kylie Minogue or Mariana Rosenberg; Earl's Court clones; leather guys at the Coleherne; posh guys at the Last Resort in Chelsea. Those last examples show my vintage off, I'm afraid. Grindr has come and things have changed but the back room remains.

The film is subbed but not all of the rapid dialogue comes up in English. It doesn't matter. It's easy to see what is going on and to work out the words and thoughts.

It's only a certain audience who will appreciate this. I'm one of them.

correct

It is only a correct perspective about secret life , first contact, options, prejudices, desires. Fair atmosphere, good cinematography, decent performances and the dark as good key for precise portrait of a form of underground. So, just correct.

That is so GAY!!!!

That is so gay on so many levels I can't even sum it up! For one, religion is gay, and then this film just proves how gay religion is!!! I have nothing against gay people or anything, but I really don't even see the point in this at all. Unless you're gay, you probably won't either. I would recommend spending 15 minutes on anything more productive or entertaining, like taking a crap, for instance. I really wish I wouldn't have wasted my time on this one. Go mow the lawn or clean the bathroom or something. You will have a much better time and you'll feel much more satisfied. This one is a complete waste of time, IMO. It's like one man's statement about being gay and religious. If that's entertainment to you, then you'll love it.
