100 Years Of Men In Love
This was a documentary on photographic evidence, over the last hundred years, of gay couples amassed by two enthusiastic collectors of such things. On the face of it all appears a little unnecessary as we all know gay people existed for all time and historical validation is irrelevant. However is was still a story that needed telling!
As a celebration it did work in spades, so much was extrapolated beyond the photo that is was very self-indulgent, but we can forgive these enthusiastists a little latitude.
I think it didn't need the narration or the quasi-romantic music, but it was okay!
Overall it was a really great and as they concluded it amounts to a love letter to the world. I'm giving it an 8 outta 10.
