Ever jerked off while staring at pictures of yourself jerking off? Then you should be able to identify with the hero of “Watch Out”, an independent movie that is released on DVD theses days. It’s an adaption of a book that tells the story of a guy who is in love with himself and who’s got a sexual realationship with a blow-up doll he prepares so it’s got his face. I haven’t seen the movie yet but it looks entertaining especially because it’s main character is played by a cute actor called Matt Riddlehoover (who I think makes the nacism of his movie charakter understandable). Here’s a teaser of the movie (you also find two theatrical trailers and dates for upcoming screenings on the website). Do you think this is a very gay phenomena by the way?
Richard Dyer discusses the theme of narcissism in his book “Now You See It”. I think we could draw some connections between the narcissistic stereotype of gay men, and some other qualities popularly assigned to us, such as hedonistic, provocateur, aggressor and threat to children. I actually enjoy all of those stereotypes for different reasons. On a related note, I’ve been wanting to see this film for a while: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0067580/
