homophobia



being the true tale of a young gay man who was kicked to death outside a toilet in bradford ... homophobia ... up behind the bus-stop in the toilets off the street / there are traces of a killing on the floor beneath your feet / mixed in with the piss and beer are bloodstains on the floor / from the boy who got his head kicked in a night or two before // homophobia the worst disease / you can't love who you want to love in times like these / homophobia the worst disease / you can’t love who you want to love in times like these // in the pubs clubs and burgerbars breeding pens for pigs / alcohol testosterone and ignorance and fists / packs of hunting animals roam across the town / they find an easy victim and they punch him to the ground // homophobia the worst disease / you can’t love who you want to love in times like these // the siren of the ambulance the deadpan of the cops / chalk to mark the outline where the boy dropped / beware the holy trinity church and state and law / for every death the virus gets more deadly than before / homophobia the worst disease / you can’t love who you want to love in times like these.

Watching you watching me

Pan's Labrynth - if you really want to see an exceptional movie (and don't mind reading subtitles) I suggest purchasing this film which was just released on DVD on May 22nd. One of the best movies I've ever seen, too scary for small children but worth watching as a teen/family film and not just a kid's film with some adult content thrown in. Thumbs way up.

Lucky you -if you didn't pay 7 bucks to see this film. They tried to make it date friendly by mixing poker with romance and heartfelt family drama, but it ended up disappointing on both sides and seeming too long. Thumb at horizon. I recommend Rounders as better option at the rental store.

Next - Nicolas Cage is not always my favorite actor but his charactor seems rather well suited for the role this time. A man that can see just a little into the future trying to figure out how to be a good person and not hurt others around him. Thumbs up.
