Readers,
This will be my final post on QueerSighted, so I want to say farewell. Thanks for reading my rants and raves, thanks for all the insightful comments and for your emails agreeing or disagreeing with the goings on here at QueerSighted.
I'm not yet sure where you can find me next, but meanwhile you can keep up with me on my MySpace page. Until I have a new gig to tell you about, I'll use that to talk about the new-new stuff I want friends (you) to know about -- like these:
Great New Movie
'The Walker': While the overall film by legend Paul Schrader is somewhat weak, watching Woody Harrelson as a gentlemanly gay escort to Washington, D.C. society ladies is worth the price of admission, especially when the company he keeps includes these three actresses: Lauren Bacall, Lily Tomlin and Kristin Scott Thomas. Delish.
Great New Book
'Someday This Pain Will Be Useful To You,' by Peter Cameron: This is the best thing I've read all year and is possibly one of most well-written coming-of-age novels ever. It's driven by a sophisticated, urban, 18-year-old postmodern gay New Yorker who hates nearly everyone as he wrestles with being a misfit. Protagonist James is so awkward and such a smart ass that you will fall in love.
Great New CD
'The Historical Conquests of Josh Ritter,' Josh Ritter: At the risk of saying "greatest" again, there's no other way to describe the song writing abilities of this man. His new album bears this out, as have all the others that precede it. Also check out NPR's podcast of 'All Songs Considered' on iTunes to listen to the live-concert recording of his recent Washington, D.C. appearance at the 9:30 Club. If you listen to that concert, Josh will gain another fan-for-life. I'm sure of it.
Great New Show
'Dirty Sexy Money' (ABC): If you aren't watching it, start watching the most fun new TV show of the season. A team of gays is the brains behind this oddball dramedy featuring the Darling family, headed by actor Donald Sutherland. The Darlings are super rich, super screwed up and super entertaining. 'Six Feet Under'-alum Peter Krause plays the family lawyer whose job it is to clean up after them all. It also features a transgendered character, respectfully treated by the show and played by transgendered actress Candis Cayne -- who gets to make onscreen sexy time with co-star William Baldwin.
Great New DVD
TLA Video is just releasing a shiny gem starring old-fashioned sissy-galore Paul Lynde in his 1976 'Paul Lynde Halloween Special.' For sissies and the men who love them (like Richard Rothstein).
Again, it's been a pleasure.
Gayly forward,
Kenneth Hill
