Despite the fact that Brad Davies' character is straight in this you can definately see some sort of chemistry between his and Norbert Weisser' character Erich, even before and after the shower scene.
:) then dont listen my bf is gay I know she told me I dont care if ur homo I really dont, like dick I dont give a shit but dont ever say I dont know I do and if u bug me again ill report got it ...NOW DID U GET THAT OR DOOOO U YA WANT ME TO ADD THE WORDS DICK MAYBE THEN ULL.HEAR :) have a nice day
Oh good lord,..the gay born or chosen debate. A quick glance its the same ole stale arguments that weve been using since the dawn of time. Why the hell cant somebody distinguish the difference between being gay (not a choice) and choosing to act out on it. (is a choice). For me personally there is nothing more hysterical than someone who is not gay absolutely insisting that it is a choice,.like (see below) Being a thief. They really have no idea how retarded they sound.
The best way to explian yea u liked a girl but now the emtions u,were born with take over which means the first best emtion for girls is gone in fact it was never there because it wasnt u and soon wen u age u realize the emtions u were born with take over and sometimes that can gay emtions or stairght or sometimes they can be feelings locked away
@memerules123 LMAO!! Dude - You are so full of shit. You cant even construct a proper sentence or use the correct spelling half the time,.. You think anyone is going to take you seriously when it comes such complexities? "I’m homosexual… How and why are idle questions. It’s a little like wanting to know why my eyes are green." -Jean Genet
No wat I ean is ye sometimes uour born to be gay but half the time there emtions that were intally meant for the oppsite sex but are gone and now for the same sex which girl girl or boy boy k?
NO ONE IS BORN GAY !!!! Being gay or likeing the same sex is a emtionaly feeling it comes when a feeling was once there for the oppsite dissapers and a new comes your not born knowing how to count ,your not born angry ,sad your not born being a theft the feeling just come and you cant help its who are you so stop saying you know gays being gay is beutiful thing because you see the world in your way ...
@memerules123 People are definitely born gay just like others are born straight. But, it's irrelevant anyways because everyone likes what they like and have every right to do so.
One of the most shocking films of it's generation.And prisoners in the UK think they have it bad.They're living in holiday camps compared to the hell-hole in this film.
@Patriot1389 You can't say that all gay men are pedophiles just because an older man hit on you when you were 14. Do you know how many fcking straight men hit on girls everyday? Of all ages? Then heterosexuality is also pedophilia!
This is absolutely and positively one of my favorite scenes. At 1:25, it's a little too dark, but still a great scene. Personally, I prefer this movie over Querelle, and I also loved Chariots of Fire. Brad Davis passed away at only 41, 2 days after his birthday). R.I.P. Brad (he would've been 63 in September).
@Patriot1389 I'm sorry you went through that, but you didn't get attacked by every single gay person on the planet. Just one. You can dislike him all you like. Heck, I would. But not everyone is a pedophile.
I almost got raped by a Mexican when I was 16. Should I dislike all Mexicans because of that? No. I blame my attacker, not his ethnicity.
Im not attacking here nobody..Read my post,all of you very good!!
I said I dont like homosexuals I got right to say that,I didnt say I hate them...
And If you read good my first post you wil se that I approwed Billys gay relationship in prision,but Im not guilty why gays read only what they want not the whole thing...
As homos got their right to say what they are I got right to say that I dont like that way of life and im not jugging nobody here!
@Patriot1389 You say you're not judging, but you ignorantly dislike gays because of one bad experience. Not to mention in one of your comments, you said you don't want gays teaching your kids in school. I'd say that's one hell of a judgement on your part.
And, btw, people don't choose to be gay. They're born that way. No one has any control over their sexuality.
Well phedophils are born that way too,but they are sick,right?
Yes I dont want to gay teach my children,what can he teach my child if he dont beleave in that..
How can explain some things to my child?
And Im born this way and I dont talk about that in public,so what you get talking anout that stuff...Is pride to be a gay and shame to be normal?To not say how namy homosexuals got AIDs and stuff...This is fact....
@Patriot1389 No, pedophiles are not born that way. Look it up.
And what does "gay teach" even mean? Do you reread your comments? I'm seeing many spelling errors, punctuation errors, and all around grammatical failure. The ignorance doesn't help, either.
You're born what way? And are you persecuted for it? Probably not.
Straight people get AIDS, too. Do you know how it first spread? A guy had sex with a monkey. This is also a fact.
My mother laungage isnt english so i can write how i can..And I got big surprise for you...Atleast I know some foreighn launguage..
First infected case of AIDS was two gays back in 1981 and journalist from my country called Mira Adanja Polak do the interwiew with them,she had only balls to get close to them..check this out if you dont beleave me ;)
@Patriot1389 are you stupid or something? AIDS was released into monkeys after the government created it, and from there it spread into humans, just like they had planned, in order to kill off some of the world's population
@Patriot1389 You don't like "gays," all of them? Be sure to put that on a t-shirt and wear it so we know not to bother you, serve you in restaurants and stores, fix your car, tend to your medical emergency, teach your kids in school, handle your finances in the bank, provide police or fire protection, preside over church services, or 1000s of other things gay people do that makes your world better.
If this film was made today. it would not be done in the dark, like that scene was. And the Late Brad Davies was an amazing actor. he was known for portraying gay in his roles as well. Some of today's actors could take a leaf out of his book.
@ekafebrianita Their love is not something that they have to share with the viewer! It's something that they share only with each other! Also, the fog gives a more light tone to the scene. The feelings (i.e. love) are more important that the flesh! It's not a pornographic scene, it's a romantic one (music & steams). Also, the steams may act as a means of hiding, covering up their affair, which it's considered improper, unacceptable because it's homosexual.
I LOVED this movie back in the seventies. Now, I just can ignore the fact that it is extremely xenophobic, homophobic and... well, plain stupid. Are we supposed to care for this idiotic drug smuggler just because he is an American citizen? Well, fuck him! John Hurt is wonderful, though. And the music is great.
@CanTake8 yep, billy turned gay. Friend of mine was in turkey and got busted for two grams. was in the same block as billy and billy made a lot of shit up. if he would have told the truth it wouldnt have been much of a movie.
@freebird7663 As a gay guy, I'm not sure turning to another man in this situation qualifies as "gay" in the "born this way" sense. I'm sure if I was stranded with women in an isolating, abusive and dehumanizing situation... I would still do their hair.
@69McJesus I'm a gay guy too. You're on to something. It's called "facultative homosexuality". It's most common in prison environments, but I suppose where the preferred type of partner is not around, well, it's another human being. Most guys in prison aren't gay, at least in the same sense those of us NOT in prison are, and that includes those who engage in gay sex. I mean please, gay guys don't do crime much.
@Dylantog Talk about taking things out of context. Go back and read that again. I said "gays guys don't do crime MUCH". I find no source that indicates gays are responsible for a significant number of crime, or are incarcerated at a higher percentage that straights. I DO find hundreds of sources dealing with crimes committed AGAINST gays. Next, I did NOT say "ALL straight guys do crime". You play fast and loose with facts. Knock it off.
@dsindc Idiot, I was pointing out that everything you said doesn't make any sense AT ALL. Gay guys don't do more or less crimes for example, when you think of gay guys you think about a stereotype. News flash, stereotyping is wrong.
@dsindc Can we both say that 3 college degrees or not, you both should be smart enough not fight like idiots on the internet, where everyone can see and say you guys are being idiots. Its dumb.
@dsindc Most "sex" between same sex people in prison has nothing to do with being homosexual.It's all about power,not sex.I'm not saying that there aren't any homosexuals who find each other in prison,I'm sure that happens.Mostly,it's about degrading the other person.It's about being the top dog.Just like most heterosexual man who rape women,it's all about having power over someone else.If it was only about having a sexual release,these people would just masturbate.
@69McJesus I don't know why you would do the ladies' hair, but if these 2 males discover love and sex together, then that is surely homo-sexual (same-sexual), and good for them
@CanTake8 Yeah, shows how homophobic Hollywood is at times. Deliberately altering what really happened because they're terrified of portraying homosexuality.
@ConservativeAnthem death boy? Really? That's your best insult? I guess it could work if it made any sense at all. Just like with the other dude I attacked, why are you on a gay video if you hate us so much? Your name says it all. You're probably just spreading the word that you so blindly adhere to. Maybe you should go bitch to someone else, because we don't give two fucks about your close minded opinion
@MrLuisG1992 about an American student who was caught in Turkey with some narcotics and put to jail where he was often beaten by sadistic guards and no one wanted to help him so he had to get away on his own, Midnight Express means escape from prison
All gays over 40 remember this movie and the impact of this scene. Sadly, Brad Davis (the one who respectfully declined) died of Aids a number of years ago.
@jimcormney Brad Davis' widow (yes, he married and had a child) wrote a book called AFTER MIDNIGHT. It's spotty, but has insights into Davis personality and doesn't shy away from the disease that took his life. Dang he was beautiful, QUERELLE is still one of my favorite movies.
I love the way he is with him. He don't want to be with him but he don't need to be mean. We can say the things tenderly without hurting anybody. I don't understand why straight people are sometimes so violent in their reaction with a other man who likes man. That's so stupid.
@theultimaverba There is a part of sexual response that is autonomic,which means you have no control over it,(i.e.:like your heart beat,body temp.,digesting your food).There are some things that our brains are hard wired to respond sexually to.Like watching a love scene in a movie.Heterosexual people can have a sexual response to a homosexual sex scene,the other way around to,even watching animals mate.This automatic response scares some people.Some people just simply act violently when scared.
@ItsumoYume haha yea that's usually the case. I find it funny when the rage on GAy PORN that THEY clicked on in the first place :P says a lot about their inner flamer, huh
I hope my gay comrades vote for this man too. Nothing will change in this country if this man does not get into office. If we do not abolish the Federal Reserve Bank, they WILL own every piece of property in this country. We need to re-establish our Constitution and the Bill of Rights for ALL citizens. Prayer in school? I'm a non-believer YET, if people want to pray in class, it does not hurt me.
I was a teenager when I saw this film and it was the most wondeful and sexy scene I had ever seen, I have not seen it for a while and I was quite moved again. It is a shame teh producers chose to ignore that he was gay and have him push him away as their relationship was really important in real life.
they were not gay, and being gay had nothing to do with it. prison changes people, especially when there are no women around. The choice to be with a man arises as a last desperate solution.
@leounicorn - Desperate solution? Could be that or maybe the sex is just fucking awesome. Oh, and the accessories. Just fabulous. *shrug* Who can say.
One of my favorite films. To all the ass bags freaking out over two guys kissing, get over it, it's the 21st f*cking century. Even better, watch the whole film and this particular scene will fall perfectly into context, and you'll see this kiss as the beautiful thing that it is.
The sad part is that in this scene Billy says no but if you read the book, he did go through with the sex and on more than one occasion while he was there.
I'm gay and I don't see this as gay at all. This happens in prison between straight men all the time. And especially in this scene, you shouldn't take it out of context of the film.
My brother is gay and my cousin is a lezbian theres nothing wrong it i just had to get used to it but it took a little longer to get used to my brother being gay. Hes great with my twin daughters they just adore their Uncle David.
Straight men SECURE in their sexuality have no problem with gay men. Check out the study that was conducted on homophobic men when they were shown gay porn. The results will surprise you.
@leevum1 Where could I find this study? You talk about it yet you gave me no hint as to what it was called. You didn't even leave us with key words to search around the internet for it! So do you have a link to this study?
@Hilarious19 'Is Homophobia Associated with Homosexual Arousal?' Journal of Abnormal Psychology, Vol 105, No 3, pp 440-44 Sorry, I have no URL but you should be able to track it down.
@leevum1 what does "secure" or "insecure" about one's sexuality even mean? that guys are scared of their penises? People are biologically hardwired to find sexual behavior alien to their own grotesque. it's the same reason why gay men shudder when they think about pussy. people should just stop using phrases that fundamentally have no meaning in order to try to paint some sort of cowardice on a group of people when the real problem is something else.
The real Billy Hayes wanted the director to let the steam rise up and fade out of the scene ( because he DID have a two year sexual relationship with the Swedish prisoner Erich while in prison) ,but the studio wouldn't allow it...they said " he can bite another mans tongue off but not show affection to another man- he has to be "relatable " to mid-America"!!! Billy Hayes was really mad about that!! He said that "Erich" saved his life in that prison by his affection... "That scene was a total
In the real life autobiography from which this movie was made, those two were fucking for two years like bunnies on viagra. There was no sensual shower scene with a polite shake of the head - more like a vigorous nod and a touching of the toes...
wow ....how come when two guys kiss is so sensual . im a girl and straight ....but see 2 guys kiss ....damn ....so soft and sensual .... straight guys should lear from them sometimes !!!!
You see, turkish baths will allways be turkish baths: even in jail they will have the same effect on 'heterosexual guys' lol

@CanTake8 yep, billy turned gay. Friend of mine was in turkey and got busted for two grams. was in the same block as billy and billy made a lot of shit up. if he would have told the truth it wouldnt have been much of a movie.

@freebird7663 As a gay guy, I'm not sure turning to another man in this situation qualifies as "gay" in the "born this way" sense. I'm sure if I was stranded with women in an isolating, abusive and dehumanizing situation... I would still do their hair.

@69McJesus I'm a gay guy too. You're on to something. It's called "facultative homosexuality". It's most common in prison environments, but I suppose where the preferred type of partner is not around, well, it's another human being. Most guys in prison aren't gay, at least in the same sense those of us NOT in prison are, and that includes those who engage in gay sex. I mean please, gay guys don't do crime much.

@dsindc "gay guys don't do crime much", yes because ALL gay guys are the same and ALL straight guys do crimes.

@Dylantog Talk about taking things out of context. Go back and read that again. I said "gays guys don't do crime MUCH". I find no source that indicates gays are responsible for a significant number of crime, or are incarcerated at a higher percentage that straights. I DO find hundreds of sources dealing with crimes committed AGAINST gays. Next, I did NOT say "ALL straight guys do crime". You play fast and loose with facts. Knock it off.
dsindc 3 weeks ago
@dsindc Idiot, I was pointing out that everything you said doesn't make any sense AT ALL. Gay guys don't do more or less crimes for example, when you think of gay guys you think about a stereotype. News flash, stereotyping is wrong.

@dsindc Most "sex" between same sex people in prison has nothing to do with being homosexual.It's all about power,not sex.I'm not saying that there aren't any homosexuals who find each other in prison,I'm sure that happens.Mostly,it's about degrading the other person.It's about being the top dog.Just like most heterosexual man who rape women,it's all about having power over someone else.If it was only about having a sexual release,these people would just masturbate.

I love the way he is with him. He don't want to be with him but he don't need to be mean. We can say the things tenderly without hurting anybody. I don't understand why straight people are sometimes so violent in their reaction with a other man who likes man. That's so stupid.
theultimaverba 2 months ago 7
@theultimaverba There is a part of sexual response that is autonomic,which means you have no control over it,(i.e.:like your heart beat,body temp.,digesting your food).There are some things that our brains are hard wired to respond sexually to.Like watching a love scene in a movie.Heterosexual people can have a sexual response to a homosexual sex scene,the other way around to,even watching animals mate.This automatic response scares some people.Some people just simply act violently when scared.

they were not gay, and being gay had nothing to do with it. prison changes people, especially when there are no women around. The choice to be with a man arises as a last desperate solution.

@leevum1 what does "secure" or "insecure" about one's sexuality even mean? that guys are scared of their penises? People are biologically hardwired to find sexual behavior alien to their own grotesque. it's the same reason why gay men shudder when they think about pussy. people should just stop using phrases that fundamentally have no meaning in order to try to paint some sort of cowardice on a group of people when the real problem is something else.

The real Billy Hayes wanted the director to let the steam rise up and fade out of the scene ( because he DID have a two year sexual relationship with the Swedish prisoner Erich while in prison) ,but the studio wouldn't allow it...they said " he can bite another mans tongue off but not show affection to another man- he has to be "relatable " to mid-America"!!! Billy Hayes was really mad about that!! He said that "Erich" saved his life in that prison by his affection... "That scene was a total
