Humiliation ritual?
NYC in the 70s and 80s was such a shithole.
Al’s bussy status?
>>214796566I wouldn't want to live there, but it made for kino setting.
>>214796532>Al Pacino plays a gay copHe plays a cop who goes undercover as a gay man.
How do you respond without sounding mad?
>>214796606Ok I have to watch this
>>214796601Did you miss the ending?
>>214796566Would you prefer that or the theme park for kitsch millionaires every major city has turned into?
>>214796532his humiliation ritual started far earlier in scarecrow where he's beaten and raped by another man.
>>214796720Anything is preferable to Ed Koch‘s New York.
>>214796566>was New flash, nigger. It still is.
How's this compare to dog day afternoon. I liked that one
>>214796566It had sovl
>>214796826Cruising, Dog Day Afternoon, and Dick Tracy are a single canon and should be watched in that order.
>>214796606Needs a fade to black with a "fin" title card.

>>214796742He also did dog day summer. Was he gay this whole time?
>>214796606Reminder that this was a real thing that happened, because if you said a cop hit you you'd have a lawsuit but if you said a gay black cowboy hit you no one would believe you.
>>214796742He wasn't raped though.
>>214796532not at allhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nF35_bqqU-E
>>214796532How did we went from leather men to this?
>>214796532Dog Day Afternoon is even worse. It's marketed as a bad ass bank hostage movie. Reviews talk about it like it's a bad ass bank hostage movie.In reality it's the story of two closeted homosexuals robbing a bank for money for a third one to have a sex change. And when they get there they convince the whole bank and the town and eventually the country that they're the good guys in the situation and the whole bank crew is cheering for them to get away and live their homosexual dreams in Tahiti. Like what the fuck. This isn't what I signed up for.
>>214797235You missed the part where it's a satiric black comedy.
>>214797288It's a true story
>>214797295Life's funnee, ain't it? *Cuts off cock and gets set on fire and run over by a bus*
>>214797295like 30% of it is. Just the guy being a closeted fag and having a tranny lover was the only true part
>>214796630I thought the crust busting scene was contrived. I didn’t really buy Al Pacino was really enjoying the meth OR the double fisting.
>>214797150>how did we wentHOW CAN SHE SLAP
>>214798403>uh, detective, how is going to gay bars and getting fisted every other night going to help us catch the killer?>...killer?
>>214796532The fisting scene was kino
>>214796532I watched this a long time ago. Then I read on /tv/ that the ending scene is supposed to suggest pacino is the killer. I didn't catch that at all.
>>214796532absolute Friedkino
>THERE WAS FUCKING. THERE WAS SUCKING. THERE WAS FISTING. I SAID TO AL I SAID AL, YOU BETTER BE PREPARED FOR THIS. THE ONLY THING WE CHANGED WAS THE DISCO MUSIC WHICH WAS TOO FRUITY EVEN FOR THIS PICTURE.
>>214796532Movie was sleaze kino but really the actual plot didn’t make a lot of sense and the “who is the real killer” thing didn’t really work
>>214796532Do Poppers do anything for you if your straight or is it just a gay person drug?
>>214799170overall there's three killers. The first murder in the film is done by a different guy than the one that gets caught, with the letters and all. And then there's Pacino at the end, killing his neighbour. What people don't understand is that Friedkin tries to communicate the death drive that is ontological to homosexual sex. This explains the history of viral illnesses, dangerous drug use, bugchasing and barebacking culture and so on
>>214796566It's probably even worse now. Sure it's more cleaned-up, but fucked if the criminals are the ones who are in charge, and the people who stand up to them are the ones who get jailed and prosecuted.
>>214799361>PACINO YOU FUCKING FAGGOT>YOU LITTLE COCKSUCKER.>and it was great>he was a good friend
>>214797150When fags abandoned the "Rob Halford tough guy" look to embrace a more feminized version of being gay. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k2sc1QTYKF4My guess is like with all beta men it's the product of men who just didn't want to make the effort to be that ripped faggot with a 6-pack stomach
>>214797235Idk movie made them look deranged for most of it and then when the guy is shot in the end it's depicted as taking out the trash
>>214797150MODS ITS PEDOPHILIA, THE ACTOR WAS 13 FFS
https://youtu.be/fmLfpoj5e84
>>214797150Who was the top?
>>214800028Timothee Chalamet
>tfw your husband finally fucks you harder because he's trying to prove to himself he's not gay
>>214799361>ONLY THING WE CHANGED WAS THE DISCO MUSIC WHICH WAS TOO FRUITY EVEN FOR THIS PICTURE.kek
>>214800231Not the only time I saw it happen in movies, such a weird trope.
>>214796532Fags where so outraged about this movie they protested during the entire production and you can hear it in some of the scene
>>214799403It makes your asshole loose
>>214796532>Tfw Friedkin hired the real homokiller for a bit part in The ExorcistK I N O
>>214796882Un film signé Greg Lansky
>>214796532Unironically his best performance together with Bobby Deerfield. And it's a great movie too.
>>214800449>Unironically his best performanceNah, for me its always going to be the scene from dog day where hes on the phone with his wife, and his tranny wife, and everything is falling apart and theres this slow push-in on his face when he hangs up, and he has this hangdog expression until it cuts to his pov and shows everyone standing around the table waiting for him. Its fucking great.Also justice for all>I'M NOT OUT OF ORDER! YOU'RE OUT OF ORDER! THIS WHOLE COURT IS OUT OF ORDER!
>>214796532What does he do when he catches them?
>>214800371Will it help you poop
>>214796532I know Pacino was a bit old for the role, but I don't think his age really held it back. It's a bit weird hearing Friedkin wishing it was Richard Gere so bad instead.
>>214797235I don't think Dog Day Afternoon ever tries to give the image of being badass. It's very apparent from early on that the robbers are amateurs in over their head, it's more about the stress of the situation than anything else.
>>214796532Nick Mullen travelled back in time to write it
>>214800949Gere wouldn't work because he doesn't have the air of sleaze that would convince you he'd get sucked into that world. It's funny that all the gay club patrons basically have Pacino's phenotype.
>>214796771>the 19 year old snidely thought, posting from Mom's house.
>>214796532Anyone else go cruising after watching this movie? It’s not as glamorous as the film made it seem
>>214801122Clearly you haven't seen Looking for Mr Goodbar, he's the sleaziest and most dangerous guy in the movie, more dangerous than the murderer, oops spoilers.
Really good movie. If you can find it, give a listen to the commentary track with both Friedkin and Kermode. Friedkin is always such great value.Actually here's a link to it: rss.com/podcasts/ctcompedium/1339640/
>>214799572nahmost leather guys were gigasluts who all died from AIDS; hence the death of this leather scene after the 1980salso, by the 1980s, this aesthetic was like decades old, ubiquitous, globalized, and fags just wanted to move on to something fresher: the whole 1980s techno/house club revolution provided a new modeland as societies were more and more accepting (1990s-2000s), there was in decrease in the absolute necessity to create an alternative macho culture
I have yet to see the film itself (been meaning to for the longest time), but I love this video https://youtu.be/b-UogrWajyg>I sent this to the ratings board with 40 additional minutes which amounted to pure male pornography>This is a fist-fucking scene. That's a guy being fist-fucked>We were the two ugliest guys in that club, in our jockstraps
>>214796878Jesus Christ. This place is a cesspool sometimes but every now and then an absolute diamond is found. Now I have to watch these three movies in order.
>>214796981>Pacino's Buffoonery Status: Unsanctioned
>>214799451that's a kino way of looking at itstill his worst flick tho
>>214802376On the opposite, Sorcerer, French Connection, Cruising and Jade are all good to mePrefer Cruising to Live and Die in LA by a long mile, didn't like Killer Joe at all
>>214796606>Billy, open the Nigger Slapper Door, please
>>214796532He did a bunch of movies where he played a faggot in the early days of his career. Who knows what was going on there
the gay bars were really under mob control
>>214797235This movie is pure kino shut up idiot
>>214796532William Friedkin openly shit on Al Pacino for his performance in this movie and claimed he ruined it
>>214799572I'm just a heterosexual (or "straighty" as you homos like to call us) but the gay community never should have abandoned the whole Tom Of Finland thing. That was fun! Ever seen a fat gay dude? Bums you out. Big time. As least the little ones (you call them "twinks") are cute. But a Rob Halford, Freddy Mercury gay, that's the ideal. You wouldn't even be mad if your son turned out to be one of THOSE gays because he's still an absolute alpha.
>>214796532More like Al PaKINO
>>214799361I read it in his voice kek. rip
>>214802961Gays used to be coolNow gays are gay Very sad
