When Love Comes
(1998, New Zealand)
Director: Maxwell, Garth
Starring: Rena Owen ; Dean O'Gorman ; Sophia Hawthorne
An aging disco diva named
Katie (Rena Owen) and her
old friend Stephen (Dean
O'Gorman) commisserate
about current relationship
problems and the good old
days in this story of enduring
friendship and courage from
New Zealand filmmaker Garth
Maxwell.
Stephen's elusive young lust
object, Mark (Simon Prast) is
easy on the eyes but hard on
the heart as he drinks his way
through numerous angsty
scenes of reluctant, teasy
flirting. Mark's pals and
bandmates Fig (Nancy Brunning) and Sally (Sophia Hawthorne) are
a punky dyke couple who gradually come to idolize Katie and try to
bring her into the band.
This film seems to strike a special chord for forty-something gay
men (must be the disco diva thing, or lusting for fucked up young
pups)? Younger audiences may wonder what all the tortured fuss is
about.
