Country: Us (1998)

Plot:

 

Johnnie is an Irish Immigrant to the US, he is a blue collar worker and has a girlfriend. Seems simple enough- in reality he has sex with other men, dresses in drag and gets into SM play behind his girlfriends back. Through his exploits he meets a hustler called Christian who becomes his romantic interest. Throughout he is taking cocaine, drinking alcohol and ruining his relationships as he tries to battle with inner demons from his childhood. When he looses it all Christian is there - and Johnnie begins to understand himself more.

 

 

Review:

This film is definitely not everyone's cup of tea the idea and the development of Johnnies character is pretty good, but there are many times in the film that you feel you don't know whats going on. Also its not a happy film in general with the underlying theme of child abuse. However, this film is interesting and contains some depth in its portrayal of someone slowly getting to grips with their past.
