Review of Dorian Blues (2005) by Billb. — 27 Sep 2007
It's sad to realize that Dorian Blues had the potential to be a great movie. Dorian is the most inhibited gay character ever on film. There is nothing about him that suggests he's gay. The brother Nicky actually tries to de-homofy him by teaching him to act straight, which is very wrong and very homophobic.
The whole heterofying aspect of this movie ruins it. Otherwise there are great lines in the movie and thoughtfulness throughout that had the potential to make this into a great film. Obviously this movie is too cozy for straights.
It was not made for gays but for straights.
