Sordid Lives

Sordid Lives is an absurdist, incendiary, equal-opportunity-offender,
politically incorrect, raucous comedy romp that skewers Southerners
with a vengeance! (Well, 'white trash', to be precise, which I typically
equate with Southerners, so..)

If you're a fan of bawdy comedy, John Waters movies, sassy back-talking
strong women, crazy over-the-top hijinks, and can let your hair down long
enough to laugh at what's truly funny, then you'll love this movie.
(This is the movie that spawned the TV series of the same name.)

The above is a fan compilation of some of the best moments of the movie--a
little more heft than a typical trailer. I think it shows off the heart of the film
and the stellar cast quite admirably!

"Big Eden" (2000)

This movie is so powerful; a modern fantasy that deals with so much of life;
unrequited love, small town issues, family, being stuck in the past, toxic love,
fear of abandonment, struggle between commitments, community, and much
more!

In the vein of "Fried Green Tomatoes," "Steel Magnolias" and other feel
good favorites of women and gay men, "Big Eden" is the ultimate in wish
fulfilment movie making. It's a heartening and seductive love story to a life
that isn't; the kind of sweet and desirable mix of comedy, drama, sex, and
love that leaves us winded, yet content.

This movie made me fall in love with Arye Gross, whom I had been cold to
on "Ellen,"  possibly because my boyfriend was smitten with him. But this
is more than a 'romance of two men.' It is, like most great stories, about
humanity, compassion, growing up, learning lessons, finding things of value,
and discovery within.
