1. For a Lost Soldier by Rudi Van Dantzig - The biographical account of a boy who falls in love with an American soldier during World War II. I hesitate to call it a bl book because of the abusive nature of the relationship, however it may still be of interest to boylovers because of the love that develops from the boy towards the soldier (this, however, does not seem to be reciprocated, as the soldier seems interested only in sex). Exactly!! That's the reason why I don't like the picturization of the book at all. The movie is nothing more than a glorification/belittlement of sex with children, because it fails to tell us the real feelings the boy had and the real intention the soldier had. I already wanted to tell you this when you recommended this flick below, but this is the even better place to do it. :-) |
