"is anyone gay in this movie?"

Almost everybody :P

[MoveOverCasanova]

how stupid can people be to assume he was gay only because he painted naked men? so much ignorance and superficiality is really astounding!!!

[venrowill]

well,i don't care if he was gay.I do love his paintings.I think He was one of the great painters too.

[WayToSaveTheWorld]

It really wasn't unusual in Classical and Renaissance circles for artistic and literary men to be bisexual or gay. It's likely, from historical evidence and the intensity of his compositions, that Caravaggio was homosexual or at least bisexual. BUT the point is, Jarman is taking looking at Caravaggio from a gay perspective; it's inevitable, and intended I think, that this aspect of his nature is intensified for the camera - and with Sean Bean as his lover, who's complaining? ;)

@MoveOverCasanova I don't think that is the fact he painted naked men but the fact he puted erotism in them which can make us belive he was gay. gay or not he is a f***ing genius

@ErunameKoster no it's just you!

Gay people are just like everybody else. You don't have to have an issue with them, or black people, fat, short, poor, stupid, or anything different. Mush gay history has

been taken out of the books. Leonardo, Michaelangelo, were gay.

@MoveOverCasanova Why is that? If a male artist portrays a beautiful man in a very erotic and attractive way - why is it stupid to consider he may be homosexual. Just as if a female painter did the same thing, one may assume she is heterosexual. Either way, where is the harm in drawing a conclusion?

[MoveOverCasanova]

@3investigators to assume someones sexual orientation BY HIS PICTURES is stupid stupid stupid!

[3investigators]

@alvaritooooooooo I don't think it's bad - it just means the production could not afford period costumes and accoutrements so they chose to give the film a non-descript vaguely 20th century visual style.

[alvaritooooooooo]

@3investigators hmmm, being budget doesn't mean to do things bad in non technical aspects imo but... anyway, thanks for the comment!

Peace

@alvaritooooooooo They didn't go for period accuracy with this film. The costumes and other visual elements are modern day. I think because of the low budget they chose to do this.
