So it's about a man who goes around having sex with younger men?


Why would anyone want to see that? Luca is a creep

reply

Yeah, just watched the trailer. Definitely a creep.

reply

This is now the third film Luca has done that involved an older person being involved with someone much younger (two of which were underage.) Luca himself dated a 23-year-old when he was 38.

reply

I've noticed this is a trend of his as well. Creepy for sure.

reply

He's projecting his fantasies onto his movies.

reply

straight men in HWood have been doing the same with younger women for a century

reply

I'm fully aware. Its creepy no matter who does it.

reply

not particularly,
sometimes opposites attract

What was the second film?
The first film was a 17 yr old with a 24 yr old.
Third movie was based on a true story and the younger guy was 21 and the Burroughs (Craig) was 36.

Luca also did other movies. I Am Love and A Bigger Splash.

Hasn’t every 18 yr old dated a lot older guy. Ask any woman.

reply

Melissa P. (2005)

So the second film was actually the first.
Did you see it. I never heard of it. It’s Spanish and Italian. Luca reminds me of Ozon.

reply

I haven't seen it but I read the plot. A girl is 15 and has sex with an older man at one point.

reply

Apparently, the novel was written by a 15 year old girl who was snubbed by a boy she liked at school and then she had sex with a lot people. Her novel was a bestseller all through Europe and then was made into a movie. Like L’Amant by Marguerite Duras but probably not nearly as good.

reply

He was 16

reply

Who was 16.

Thea kid in Call me by your name

reply

I saw the movie.

Wiki
In the summer of 1983, Elio Perlman, a 17-year-old Jewish French-Italian boy, lives with his parents in rural Northern Italy. Elio's father, a professor of archaeology, invites a 24-year-old Jewish-American graduate student, Oliver, to live with the family over the summer and help with his academic paperwork.

Gross.

Miss me with that gay shit.

What's good for Michael Knowles is good for 007!

reply

What

reply

Before he joined DW, Knowles did a short film where he played a guy cruising for gay sex.

reply

that was a documentary short

reply

It looks like art imitating life for our lead.

reply

He has to be gay

reply

“Why would anyone want to see that? Luca is a creep.”

Because they are probably interested in seeing the life of Beat author William R. Burroughs (Daniel Craig) and liked his novel Naked Lunch and liked him as the old man junkie in Drugstore Cowboy.

He was homosexual but never fessed up to it. Heavy heroin user which attracted a cult following. Kurt Cobain was one of them. So was Bob Dylan, Patti Smith, Michael Stipe, Thurston Moore, David Bowie, Lou Reed. This is his account of his unrequited obsession with “the” guy in Mexico in the ‘50s.
