"ZERO PATIENCE" - "Just Like Schaharazade"

[Toronado2008]

HOW did I ever miss this film when it was released? Just found out about it a couple weeks ago, and got the Netflix DVD. It's a wonderful film - the lead actor is stunningly good looking - and the music is well-done and catchy. Love this video - it was one of my favorite scenes.

I saw this movie 12 years ago before I first started dating my husband who has AIDS and it gave me great insight into the AIDS mythos and helped explode my fears of dating a guy with AIDS. Now, I still find it romantic and moving and as timely as it must have been in 1993 years -- although for different because of the general health care crisis, the return to unprotected sex, and the sheer expense of AIDS meds. But watch it because it is really very very good.

I'm in Canada.

I just loved this Canadian film. It came out in the early 1990's.

I thought the music was clever. The guy who played Patient Zero is mezmerizing.

I met filmmaker John Greyson an the lgbt film festival in Ottawa. He seemed suprised that I'd seen the film more than once.

I couldn't believe that no one else was waiting to talk to him. He was just standing there kind of awkwardly outside the theatre doors (at the National Gallery.)

@brotherdarek This movie SO rocked!!!! I'm really surprised that more people (gay, straight, just folks who love good movies) didn't make it a real hit. It would be perfect on any film program for a midnight cult movie! Great, great underrated film and I really appreciate you taking the time to comment and relating your interesting story.

Hey WLB. How can I not agree with you!

I wonder if it was too raw for some?

In the other pool scene, i recognized one of the faces as being Judy Rebick - head of The National Action Committee on the Status of Women (that year.) And the movie's radio anouncer is somebody from CBC.

You're in the US?

[withlotsabutta]

Yes, California. L.A. to be exact.

The message was too hidden for that to happen.

I loved this film so much that I had to order it with German subs hard encoded on VHS to get it.

Excellent Film. Melancholy song, beautiful, sad, intelligent.

I don't know what it is about gay culture that fascinates me, considering I'm straight...at least I believe I'm straight cause I don't have attractions to women. Anyways, this movie had me awed...it really opened my mind to issues surrounding sexuality in general and aids in our society. A definite A+ film.

[withlotsabutta]

That's got to be the most intelligent, considered, and wonderful comment I've had all week! Thank you for your honesty, thanks for sharing! I've sent you a friend invite and hope you will except. I wish I had more women who watched my channel who thought like you!!

[MrsLillyPooh]

Thanks...it was the truth.

Great movie. It was shown in Mexico City only once, during a gay festival, many years ago. I was very impressed, it is a clever, extravagant and wonderful movie, I got the DVD now!

[withlotsabutta]

Yes, it is it's "extravagances" that I think turn people off to it,but it really is a very fine film. Thank you for taking the time to comment!!t

[rbryanh]

Thank you for posting this. I haven't seen it since it premiered in '93. Everyone I attended the opening with has long since died.

[withlotsabutta]

My condolences. Thank you for your sobering, thoughtful comment.
