<sigh> And
you end with a little balloon tag and a kiss, can't beat that. :)
@Geevie I have a
weakness for gay romantic comedies. This is one of the best IMO. Also has an
insanely good supporting cast.
@Geevie Jeffrey,
starring Steven Weber and Michael T. Weiss. One of my faves.
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0113464/
It's also
interesting that Jeffrey almost turns Steve into a stubborn bitch himself.
And only in a gay
romcom could the main character's big romantic declaration be a request for
sex. It's no wonder I love these movies.
Bryan Batt is so
wonderful. I'm glad he stayed from the stage production of Jeffrey to the film.
He IS Darius.
Patrick Stewart in
the hospital just kills me every time. The pain and the anger together is just
heartbreaking.
I think Kevin Nealon
and his hairpiece should've each had their own credit.
It suddenly occurs
to me that Steve could use my book. Jeffrey is definitely an example of a
stubborn bitch.
This movie is so
full of brilliant women. Olympia Dukakis as the mother of a pre-operative
transsexual lesbian; priceless. :)
The little old
ladies in the church add a whole new dimension of funny and sweet to Nathan
Lane's magnificence performance.
Movies that make
you laugh right after they make you cry are the best kind. To go from Darius'
collapse to Nathan Lane's nuttiness. <sigh>
Seriously, if a
woman in a romcom said, "I very well may even love you.... that should
beat anything," everyone would tag it as unrealistic.
The scene where
Weiss dances out his frustrations. Uhn!
Kathy Najimy and
Sigourney Weaver could so do a comedy together. Though are friggin hilarious.
I completely get
Steve's perspective in this story, but in fairness to Jeffrey, a mob enforced
date & then the HIV thing, would freak me out
People make cracks
about the gay stereotypes in this movie, but there are sooo many more
stereotypes than gay ones. :)
Michael T. Weiss
looking rejected is just a little heart breaking.
Christine Baranski:
one of the funniest people in the entire world.
You know, it could
be argued that QI is just a better version of the "It's Just Sex"
game show scene. I wonder if Fry loves this movie too.
I think Jeffrey was
the first movie I saw Patrick Stewart in after Star Trek. There was something
very awesome about that.
LMAO, right when
everybody supposedly freezes for Jeffrey's "OMG HE'S HOT!" moment,
Weiss' eyebrow totally goes up; he almost cracks.
Wow, I didn't even
remember that Peter Jacobson was in this movie! He had so much more hair back
then. :)
Ok, I had to do it.
I'm watching Jeffrey now. It's just so hard not to follow up one gay comedy
w/another. And Weiss & Weber, mmmhmm.
I have adored
Malcolm Gets for years, and he's what first drew me to A&S, but Craig
Chester still rocks in many many ways.
The moral of the
story: All it takes is a little Sound of Music to convert a verbal gay basher.
:)
I like that the bar
people get to find out the asshole covered in bruises really kind of deserved
what happened to him. :)
Why I really love
gay romcoms: gay men are allowed to say things in movies that women aren't
allowed to, not without rehab involved.
Since I'm sure not
all gay men like musicals, i wonder if those who don't resent all the
gratuitous musical scenes in gay romcoms.
I wanna see
outtakes from this movie. When Gets and Posey both say "You do." I'm
sure Kattan was about to bust out laughing b4 the cut.
What I love about
Adam's family is that their unluckiness is really exaggerated, but it kind of
reveals that there's such a thing in reality
How can you not
love a movie with Parker Posey and Chris Kattan getting baked together, and
then him seducing her with pie?
Ok, I'm not
generally a big 'hair' girl, but Malcolm Gets' hair in this movie is just
ridiculously sexy.
I love that Jeffrey
and Adam & Steve both have deep meaningful relationship conversations at
the 'gay pride' statues ironically. :)
It might sound
weird, but I love the way they trade off the insecure role whenever Adam &
Steve are really getting emotional. Makes me :)
I was gonna watch
more QI, but I got a sudden hankering for some Adam & Steve. I adore
Malcolm Gets.
