another homo movie by gregg araki
hot pink late night phone calls on transparent phones. supermarket murals. queer dysfunction and TV hum-soaked confusion.disillusioned gay teens wandering through a gen-x desolation posturing and fucking and over confidently stating The Facts. Ghosts of society left to die and be dead. being a teenager is hard enough, but being a queer teenage nihilist, left to wander art installations and industrial concerts and car parks and gas stations and shit jobs looking for love in Bush's Conservative America? fuck that.Every rewatch of this film gives me something extra to enjoy, especially this viewing since i am a 27 year old boy lost in a locked sea of emotional and psychological waste. i found solace in TFU.Gregg Araki films are everything to me.
