The veteran gay activist/author/playwright Larry Kramer was right. Again. AFTER LOUIE is indeed a movie that had to be made. Filmmaker VINCENT GAGLIOSTRO talks about his directing debut with this powerful and entertaining inter-generational drama about AIDS. Starring ALAN CUMMING and ZACHARY BOOTH the story tackles how we are all coping now that the AIDS pandemic is no longer the lethal threat to us all that it once was.
Gagliostro told queerguruthat After Louie is about getting that older generation to dare to dream again, and at the same time, getting the younger generation to just dream
In a very noisy Press Room at the Miami Film Festival, dancer/choreographer Jamal Sims talks about his directing debut, along with Jordan Finnegan his producer, of When The Beat Drops an exciting new queer black dance documentary on the fabulous world of ‘bucking’ that premiered at the Festival.
The movie’s other producers are the legendary Fenton Bailey & Randy Barbato of World of Wonder fame, so we can expect to see the film surfacing either at a Festival near you soon or on some streaming platform or even TV. Watch this space.
The interview with Roger Walker-Dack was filmed by Hussein Wentz for www.queergurutv.com at The Standard Spa, Miami Beach.
Whiskey Sommelier Heather Greene whisked up some mean Japanese Highballs when we ran into her at Roux during Provincetown Film Society & Festival & now we are totally hooked. She’s the author of the best selling Whiskey Distilled: A Populist Guide to the Water of Life, and possibly our new best friend!
