  1. If #Reform 👹 gets in, we'll :queer: be back to this:

    #Victim 1961 #DirkBogarde

    This is how bad homophobia was in the #UK back then. This #film played a part in being one of the reasons the govt 'let' us #LGBTQIAplus become 'legal' (oh that's mighty cis straight of them)

    Well, ok...but...pressure. Pressure is how we got gay marriage in the UK.

    After the film '#Victim', with #DirkBogarde , 1961, #film was one of the many elements that eventually got being #Lgbt legalised in 1967. This film as well as activism, etc put pressure on the government.

    So, enough pressure can force courts and governments to do anything.

    In 2007 was de film bij de BRT te zien.
    Dat leverde de volgende recensie op:

  12. "Happy" Anniversary to THE NIGHT PORTER aka "Il portiere di notte" porter, which premiered in France on this day 50 years ago in 1974.

    This is probably the weirdest and unsettling movie I have ever seen. Its an italian sexploitation flic with a twist:

  15. From the #archives:

    Directed by #JohnFrankeheimer from a #screenplay by #DaltonTrumbo, the real-life-based #TheFixer stars a badly miscast (& eventually #Oscar-nominated) #AlanBates as a #Jewish man jailed for a murder he didn't commit.

    altfg.com/film/the-fixer-movie

    THE FIXER is evidence that good intentions don't a good #movie make.

    Also in the cast: #DirkBogarde, #GeorgiaBrown, #HughGriffith, #DavidWarner, #IanHolm.

  16. Watched Dirk Bogarde and Sylvia Syms in Victim (1961) — not just an excellent British film noir, but one that helped change the law on homosexuality #DirkBogarde #SylviaSyms #Victim

  17. #RIP #SylviaSyms (1934–2023)

    Alluring, capable #actress in show business for 65 years.

    Notable #film roles include:

    She's excellent as #DirkBogarde's initially unsuspecting wife in #BasilDearden's landmark 1961 drama VICTIM, the 1st major #British #movie centered on a modern-day #gay character.

    She's just as good as The Queen Mother in #StephenFrears' #Oscar-nominated THE QUEEN (2006).

    Her final big-screen role was as 1 of the leads in Paul Duddridge's 2018 #drama TOGETHER.
