SEE JOSH O'CONNOR, PAUL MESCAL, ALEXANDER SKARSGARD, RUSSELL TOVEY, TOM BLYTH ENJOY SOME GAY LOVE IN 2025 GAY FILMS HISTORY OF SOUND, PILLION AND PLAINCLOTHES

    2025 GAY LOVE FILMS  
THE HISTORY OF SOUND
There are a couple of gay themed movies at Cannes this year, among them is THE HISTORY OF SOUND  with gay icons Josh O'Connor and Paul Mescal as two young men during World War I who set out to record the lives, voices and music of their American countrymen. In this snatched, short-lived moment in their young lives, and while discovering the epic sweep of the U.S., both men are deeply changed. This historical romantic drama film, directed by Oliver Hermanus is based on the short story of the same name by Ben Shattuck. Some critics have called it moving and tasteful in the first reviews from Cannes.
 
PILLION WITH ALEXANDER SKARSGARD
Then there is something that contains, as far as I have heard tons of extreme graphic sex and Alexander Skarsgard has said their shooting was very intense. Fun and filthy romance with heart PILLION follows Colin (Harry Melling), a weedy wallflower letting life pass him by. That is until Ray (Skarsgård), the impossibly handsome leader of a motorbike club, takes him on as his submissive. Ray uproots Colin from his dreary suburban life, introducing him to a community of kinky, queer bikers and taking all sorts of virginities along the way. But as Colin steps deeper into Ray’s world of rules and mysteries, he begins to question whether the life of a 24/7 submissive is for him. 


PLAINCLOTHES WITH RUSSELL TOVEY
This one did not hit Cannes, but gay romantic drama PLAINCLOTHES is also arriving this year.  Russell Tovey and Tom Blyth have been set as leads in the indie movie from Carmen Emmi who directed this story which she also wrote. Set in the ’90s and inspired by true events, it follows a working-class undercover officer who is tasked with entrapping and apprehending gay men, only to find himself drawn to one of his targets.

  1. Breve ma intenso ritratto di un amore omosessuale in un futuro prossimo. Con uno stile asciutto e delicato, esplora le emozioni autentiche tra i protagonisti, toccando temi di identità, libertà e accettazione. Un film che parla d’amore universale con sensibilità e modernità.
    Un caro saluto

    1. It is so terrible gay people were prosecuted and even more terrible that it is all coming back with the right wing rising in power everywhere. It seems the worst is awakening in people.
