"Dean" (Lucas Near-Verbrugghe) gets his eyes tested - that's the title sorted out. The remainder of the film involves him receiving a message from his ex-lover "Alex" (Aaron Costa Ganis) and the two proceed to meet in the famous Joshua Tree National Park. In the fifteen years since their relationship abruptly ended, both have made new lives for themselves so auteur Tom Kirkman seems to be presenting us with a sort of gay mid-life crisis movie. The two men immediately recapture some of their past feelings for each other; plenty of sex (indeed, "Dean" is naked for quite a chunk of this) and there is plenty of probingly intimate pillow talk as they discuss past, present and future. The cinematography is skilful, not just the beautiful scenery but also in conveying quite a sense of the intimacy between the two men as they enjoy and challenge each other, now as more mature adults. The story has an inevitability about it though, and the ending was pretty poor. Not that it needed to be happy - or even sad - but this almost led me to expect that one of them was going to wake up and discover it had all just been a dream!

1981-05-27The film follows four families, with different nationalities (French, German, Russian and American) but with the same passion for music, from the 1930s to the 1960s. The various story lines cross each other time and again in different places and times, with their own theme scores that evolve as time passes. The main event in the film is the Second World War, which throws the stories of the four musical families together and mixes their fates. Although all characters are fictional, many of them are loosely based on historical musical icons (Édith Piaf, Josephine Baker, Herbert von Karajan, Glenn Miller, Rudolf Nureyev, etc.) The Boléro dance sequence at the end brings all the threads together.I Want to Be Famous
