Clapham Junction

• $10.00
• Director: Adrian Shergold
• 2007, UK, 120min

Clapham Junction reunites the stars of Maurice (James Wilby and Rupert Graves), but this is no Merchant Ivory drama.  Times are still tough for both the out and the closeted living in this modern urban London neighborhood.  Violence still lurks around the corner, be you gay, lesbian, or trans.  Class issues cloud the problem, but no one can stop what they feel, and the heart can’t be told who to love…even when the body is beaten.

Sexually graphic, gritty, and often violent, this made-for-British-TV drama takes a look at gay men in contemporary London whose lives intersect during a 36-hour period.  Two men get married in a civil partnership ceremony, but faithfulness is not for long with these two.  Meanwhile a teenage boy confronts his ongoing obsession with his sexy, intense (and sweaty) older neighbor.

Refreshingly complex characters live everyday ‘normal’ lives, but they also have a darker (and human) side as they lie to their partners, do drugs, and troll public bathrooms.  There are no easy answers here and the bad guys are as obvious as those committing hate crimes and as shockingly insidious as friends at a civilized dinner party.

No One Under 17 Admitted (due to nudity, graphic sex and violence).
