回复 :In 1976, Karen and Barry Mason had fallen on hard times and were looking for a way to support their young family when they answered an ad in the Los Angeles Times. Larry Flynt was seeking distributors for Hustler Magazine. What was expected to be a brief sideline led to their becoming fully immersed in the LGBT community as they took over a local store, Circus of Books. A decade later, they had become the biggest distributors of gay porn in the US.The film focuses on the double life they led, trying to maintain the balance of being parents at a time when LGBT culture was not yet accepted. Their many challenges included facing jail time for a federal obscenity prosecution and enabling their store to be a place of refuge at the height of the AIDS crisis.Circus of Books offers a rare glimpse into an untold chapter of queer history, and it is told through the lense of the owners' own daughter, Rachel Mason, an artist, filmmaker and musician.
回复 :只要有处在青春期脑子里面整天都是性幻想的少男存在，这部片子就不愁没有观众。 这部在1981年上映的影片是根据同名图片杂志改编的（当然是一本最大限度激发了想象力和“自慰”本能的杂志），也同时成为Columbia/TriStar's公司作品中最响亮的名字。不同的人有着截然不同的评论，一是专业的成年评论者，他们认为这部动画片就是抓住了特定人群的心理，利用炫目奇幻的特点吸引年轻族群，招来全世界上百位动画技师但也没有任何革命性的创新出现。但是相反躁动的年轻人可不这样看，影片上映在80年代初期，刚刚经历完70年代美国思潮的年轻人们急欲找到能够释放的渠道，深夜观看这部片子也许就是他们最大的慰籍...
回复 :This film is not about the revolution that changed Ukraine this winter. Not exactly. It rather shows a universal pattern of particular kind of uprisings - those ones that end with bloodshed. At first, the noble endeavor for freedom collides with the dark force of repressive rulers. Then eventually, after much confusion and chaos, the righteous anger of people changes to pure outrage. And when the first casualties on both sides fall, no matter how black and white it seems from outside, the edge between good and bad blurs when one looks from the epicenter of a battle. And finally, all things ablaze.
