- DirectorChantal AkermanStarsChantal AkermanNiels ArestrupClaire Wauthion'Je' is a girl voluntarily lock up in a room. 'Tu' is the script. 'Il' is a lorry driver. 'Elle' is the girlfriend.Another difficult choice. Is a film LGBT-related because it has a 15-minute Lesbian sex scene at the end, with no comprehensible connection to the rest, and without the slightest pretense of coherency? Or is this just artsy, dreary, boring sexploitation? Make up your own mind, but be warned: you may find this revoltingly uninteresting.

- DirectorSidney LumetStarsAl PacinoJohn CazalePenelope AllenThree amateur bank robbers plan to hold up a bank. A nice simple robbery: Walk in, take the money, and run. Unfortunately, the supposedly uncomplicated heist suddenly becomes a bizarre nightmare as everything that could go wrong does.'true life better than fiction' - classic tale of a heist gone wrong cannot really be called gay-themed because that's just a twist to real-life John Wojtowicz's story, but one can argue that it's remarkable that Warner Bros. didn't supress that story element.
- DirectorRainer Werner FassbinderStarsRainer Werner FassbinderPeter ChatelKarlheinz BöhmA suggestible working-class innocent wins the lottery but lets himself be taken advantage of by his bourgeois new boyfriend and his circle of materialistic friends.Fassbender's most openly gay film is actually an adaptation of a literary classic, but remodeled to depict the German gay scene.

- DirectorPeter WeirStarsRachel RobertsAnne-Louise LambertVivean GrayDuring a rural summer picnic, a few students and a teacher from an Australian girls' school vanish without a trace. Their absence frustrates and haunts the people left behind.Peter Weir's masterpiece has often been interpreted in a Lesbian context, but I've never felt so sure about that... decided to list it here after consulting with a Lesbian friend.

- DirectorPier Paolo PasoliniStarsPaolo BonacelliGiorgio CataldiUberto Paolo QuintavalleIn World War II Italy, four fascist libertines round up nine adolescent boys and girls and subject them to 120 days of physical, mental, and sexual torture.Pasolini's last and most notorious film associates homosexual acts with the depravity of the Fascist elite and could therefore be regarded as an anti-gay by a gay director - a premise under which it makes some odd sense

Marc is very virile, while Philippe is more reserved. A night, Marc surprises Philippe dressed and made-up like a woman.

- DirectorSerge GainsbourgStarsJane BirkinJoe DallesandroHugues QuesterPetite waitress Johnny works and lives in a truck-stop, where she's lonely and longs for love. She develops a crush on garbage-truck driver Krassky, although her sleazy boss Boris warns her that he's gay.Another film that actually should not be on this list as it's unabashedly exploitative, it's also a one-of-a-kind surreal experience. The gay theme is milked for shock yet off-the-charts unrealistic, and one cannot help but wonder about uber-hetero Serge Gainsbourg's motivation for (ab)using his real-life partner Jane Birkin, plus naming the film after their biggest hit. However, it's Joe Dallessandro's only film in which he is really gay.
- DirectorPhilippe ValloisStarsMarie-Christine WeillPatrice PascalPhilippe ValloisWhile Philipe waits for Johan to come out of jail he starts recreating several moments of their relationship with the help of several friends during the summer of 1975.very overt and underground, but camera-wise almost unwatchable.
- DirectorGeorge SchlatterStarsRedd FoxxPearl BaileyDennis DuganA black man is distraught when he discovers his son is gay and is determined to set him right.First black gay-themed film is a cliché-riddled theater piece, but quite sympathetic and once again an interesting time-travel experience.
- DirectorRichard LesterStarsJack WestonRita MorenoJerry StillerEvading a mob contract on his life, a heterosexual man winds up hiding out at a homosexual bathhouse.extremely silly cult comedy set in a gay bathhouse; the variety show in there makes for an odd time-travel experience.
