SOME OF MY BEST FRIENDS ARE
(1971, 35mm)
It's Christmas Eve 1971 in a Greenwich Village gay bar, and everyone's got the gift of gab.

Rarely shown, unavailable on home video and screening in all of its uncensored glory! In his book, 101 Must-See Movies for Gay Men, author Alonso Duralde writes about the film, "If this unavailable on video gem ever screens anywhere near you, cancel all plans and go, go, go."
