“The Curiosity of Chance” (2006)

I hadn’t seen this one before, and sadly I was bit disappointed. I’ll talk about this a little more after I watch the next movie, which it reminded me of, but if I remember correctly, I liked the other film, “Edge of Seventeen” far more.

I should write a real review of this. Maybe I’ll revisit it someday and do that. But see the next entry and I’ll talk about it more.

“Bear Cub” / “Cachorro” (2004)


On April 14, 2020 I wrote:

“I watched this movie yesterday, which I’d owned for about 16 years and had never seen. It was great! I loved it. My only minor quibble with it was that they sometimes spoke very quickly so the subtitles were flashing so quickly across the screen that I could barely look at what was happening…but I suppose that’s my own fault for not knowing Spanish! I’m happy that I’m finally seeing these movies from my collection as I revisit others I’ve mostly not seen in years. ❤ 🏳️‍🌈 🏳️‍⚧”

Lookin gback now, in April of 2026, I remember loving this movie but at the time I wasn’t writing in depth reviews. This is one that plan to revisit at some point and give it a proper review.

LGBTQ+ Movie Review Index

During the Covid-19 pandemic lockdown in New York, I started diving into my LGBTQ+ inclusive movie collection and was obsessed for a time, watching movies all day, sleeping and starting again. It helped me cope with what was happening, but led to some problematic behavior that I’m only just getting over. But on the bright side, I watched over 800 titles, the majority of which I’d never seen before. At first I just noted that I was watching them but eventually I started posting my thoughts on each entry, some of which were brief and others that were longer. This was all on Facebook and utterly random with no plan. I’m slowly transferring all of that here. I watched in 2020, 2021 & 2022. I took 2023 off then watched more in 2024. I’ve not kept up with the project in 2025 or 2026, but that’s because I needed to get outside more, which I have. lol Anyways…the reviews will be here someday.
