145. Boat Trip (2002) & Cruising (1980)
Manage episode 428830876 series 2873533
This week, we discuss two films criticised for their depiction of gay people.
The first is Boat Trip (2002), a romantic comedy directed by Mort Nathan in his feature film directorial debut and starring Cuba Gooding Jr., Horatio Sanz, Vivica A. Fox, Roselyn Sánchez and Roger Moore. The film was a critical and commercial failure.
The second is Cruising (1980), a crime thriller written and directed by William Friedkin, and starring Al Pacino, Paul Sorvino and Karen Allen. It is loosely based on the novel of the same name by The New York Times reporter Gerald Walker about a serial killer targeting gay men, particularly those men associated with the leather scene in the late 1970s.
