Default Festival to offer gay film prize

http://newsvote.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/enter...nt/6925521.stm
Quote:

Films with a gay theme or character are to be recognised with a new award at the Venice Film Festival.
The Queer Lion award, a take on the festival's main Golden Lion prize, will go to the best full-length film featuring a gay theme or character.
Will there be a hetro lion award? No thought not.

I'm surprised they araen't giving a Golden Fist award - they could call it a Lamont.

So what? Gay is a recognised film genre. Straight is not (as it is just considered normal).

I think we've spoken about this before, I mailed the BBC about
their use of overtly homosexual presenters, ring a bell?
But I've worked door security in numerous gay bars around
the West End, there are homosexuals who are just what
the name suggests, homosexuals, not my thing, but not my
business either.
But in the very gay "Dennis Norton over the top I'm a queen"
brigade, are some of the most vulgar, bigoted and narrow
minded people I have ever met, and bear in mind, I also had to provide security for West Ham Utd v Millwall a few years back
so a lot to compare it with. I hate to think that such
narrow mindedness could be awarded!!!

Normal? So in other words this emphathises that being gay is abnormal.

If that's the way they want it, then fine!

Are you getting mixed up between Denis Norden and Graeme Norton? I hope so, because Denis Norden is quite definitely not gay; his wife of 60 odd years would be surprised to hear it anyway... as well as his children.

I probably am, I'm talking about the short Irish bloke,
with the ridiculous accent, not the bloke who did "It'll
be alright on the night" for what seemed like centuries.

Oh dear, I think you'd need to eat a bucket
of horse manure to match that bad taste.
Even with my TV presenter **** up (Sorry!!)
It was obvious what group of people I was
talking about. I've met loads, and I can't think
of one decent thing to say about any that
I've met.
