Top 10 Science Fiction Films Starring Gay Audiophiles

206.165.142.131

Well actually I can only think of one -- the answer is undoubtedly The Man Who Fell to Earth (1976).

Directed by Nicolas Roeg, this movie features Buck Henry as Oliver Farnsworth, an unabashedly gay audiophile played with quiet dignity (he can be seen fiddling with his gear, and his live-in lover, throughout the film). An altogether refreshing look at audiophiles with alternate lifestyles.

Disclaimer: I would not recommend this film to any homophobic viewers -- you know, the kind who think that characters with gay tendencies “ruin” a film -- kind of like John Leguzamo in “Spawn” -- as the enlightened, non-judgmental portrayal of an audiophile with an alternate lifestyle may cause them to spontaneously combust (or worse - get in touch with their female side).

Well I must be off to arrange some flower centerpieces -- they look so lovely next to the fresh-baked donuts I just made.

Hugs & Kisses,

Scott
