Tan Lines [DVD]
5.  Tan Lines [DVD] DVD ~ Jack Baxter

Sugar [DVD]
7.  Sugar [DVD] DVD ~ Brendan Fehr
The list author says:
  "Backstreet slumming and a nervy kid who sets out for a lay. A gritty, jaunty approach to heartache, a welcome change from saccharine cliche."

Mysterious Skin [DVD] [2005]
8.  Mysterious Skin [DVD] [2005] DVD ~ Brady Corbet

Surveillance [DVD]
9.  Surveillance [DVD] DVD ~ Dawn Steele
The list author says:
  "You may have noticed by now that I go for films that avoid the rom-com cliche and poor acting so prevalent in TLA rleases. Here we have Simon Callow in a Brit-flick about a gay royal cover-up!"

15.  Drole De Felix [2000] [DVD] DVD ~ Sami Bouajila

  "A film about a gay HIV positive man where his illness and sexuality aren't the driving force of the narrative? Can it be so? A charming film, it says a lot about equality without actually saying it."
