Two things

1. Instead of baseball last night, I rewatched My Beautiful Laundrette with some friends. It was a very nostalgic experience. I first saw the movie in college. There was a theater in the student union that showed indy films for two bucks. I went to see this with my roommates, and then I went back the next night by myself, and when the film started playing at the art house theater in town, I went to see it again. It was my slashy coming of age!

I went looking for fan fic for the movie last night and couldn't find any. There really, really ought to be some.

2. As a reminder, the Sex Toy Porn-a-rama is open for business. Check out this hot, hot story:

Cold Hand, Warm Heart, Firefly, Mal/Simon, fur-lined handcuffs, by executrix

Come out and play, my porn writing friends. There are lots and lots of prompts to fuel the imagination!

I loved My Beautiful Laundrette! A supervisor of mine loaned it to me a long time ago and I haven't been able to find it since then. You're right, there should be fanfic-it really should be a better-known film.

Isn't it a great film? I hadn't seen it for years, so I was amazed all over again by the tender-hot chemistry between the two leads. I'm hoping to get it included in Yuletide 08!!

Have you seen The Wedding Banquet, starring Mitchell Lichtenstein? I don't know the names of the other actors, unfortunately. It's a Taiwannese-made film, I believe, and very charming.
