Shortbus

Reasons to watch 'Shortbus' by john cameron mitchell;

01 Superb cinematography. That is if you're into amateur home-video filming, odd cuts and real lighting. Raw. Raw. Raw.

02 The tale of Paul Dawson and PJ deBoy. How not to fall in love with their powerhouse love affair?

03 The realism of the movie and how each character and their stories are unique with a touch of soul. Very true to the heart. It sure ain't no fairytale here, girlfriend!

04 It's like watching an underground remake of 'eyes wide shut'. Only this feels more real and most of the guys are taller than mr cruise.

05 Paul Dawson. The man is a breathing greek god. Gone were the days of good ol' boy next door look, welcome the 3G's of 2007; Grunge, Gritty and a lot of wholesome Goodness.

06 Justin Bond's monologue at the end of the movie.

Shortbus is a warm hearted tale that explores the relationship between individuals, surpassing all social expectation and boundaries. If an odd tale about a sex therapist who have trouble getting an orgasm, a lover's suicide note to his partner and a lost polaroid freak doesn't thrills you, then i think you better go fly kite. This is officially my Best Underground Movie of the year 2006.

Oh by the way, i think 'shortbus' is a softer soft porn. Got naked naked a bit. So don't watch it at the office.
